I am planning on switching from Fast Tack to Tufo tape, and I'm wondering:
do I have to remove my old glue residue or can I lay the tape down on top of
it?
Thanks,

Using two disparate types of adhesive in combination will not yield as strong a
bond as using a single type properly applied. I've never tried the tape myself,
or Fast Tack. I've always used Continental cement, which works well, and can be
easily removed from rims with lacquer thinner and scotchbrite pads if
necessary.

I use the Tufo tape and so far it's been flawless. I suggest you remove
any remnants of old glue with a solvent and start with a clean rim.
