recommendations for double-sided tape for plastic mounts

Recommended Posts

I'm using the plastic DPA concealer lav mounts, and occasionally the InvisiLav mounts for the cos-11s.  I'm looking for double-sided tape of equivalent quality to the stock circles that come with the DPA concealers, but in larger amounts that I can cut and customize myself.  Anyone find anything like this in rolls or sheets?    I already have and use snot tape for other purposes, but was looking for something less gooey :)

 

Thanks!

I 2nd TOPSTICK, easy to cut -or even rip. And very affordable. I like the Rycote stickies, but only whenever I use the Rycote  OverCovers. Ialways have a few Concealers pre “sticky” then just peel the back off and go. And you can even re- stick more Topstick on top of itself in a pinch and its ready to go.

Here is a link to a lot of mounting options, including sticky things: https://www.trewaudio.com/product-category/expendables/expendables-lavalier-accessories/?q=product-category%2Fexpendables%2Fexpendables-lavalier-accessories%2F&products-per-page=48

 

Also, there is an item not listed above (may be it will be by the time you read this), that is worth knowing about, called "Super Stick It" and Super Stick It Dots" (photo of package below), also stocked at Trew Audio. This item is like Top Stick, but much stickier. It comes in precut strips like Top Stick, but also in round dots.

Bumping this thread to further the discussion. I’ve been using the Bubblebee system for DPA 6060’s and I haven’t had a great success rate with the double sided tape portion of it. I’m working on a project about a sheriff election and the incumbent sheriff wears a polyester (I think) shirt that makes the bubblebee tape about 50% effective. I want to continue to use the bubblebee mounts but am in need of stronger double sided tape. I’ll definitely try some of the options mentioned above. Thank you JW, m-

Super Stick-it. Or, DIY “vampire clip” by attaching the mic to a small safety pin with moleskin or whatever medical tape you got.
