Good, cheap velcro

Post by Bg »

Just a heads up as this is asked for regularly. Just bought a metre of 50mm self adhesive backed Velcro from para rubber. Damage was just over 10 bucks!
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

A friend of mine got some cheap velcro at spotlight and had all his pedals fall of a board...
They keep telling me tone is in the fingers, but I have yet to see a "look at my fingers" thread.

+1 on this. Got some today and finally stuck the 3 pedals that have been floating around, firmly onto the board. Thanks for the tip BG.

Another source, went to the RS at the weekend and they were out, spotlight was a dead end, but Mitre 10 had it on rolls which you can buy it by the metre, both halves were $7.80 a metre each :)
