King Tut Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 As it says on the box...............where can I get sticky backed velcro tought enough to use on a a pedal board? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheddatom Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 B & Q but you have to make sure it's bonded to the pedal allright. I ended up using superglue after the pedals came loose as it's quite expensive stuff to get! (i'm talking about the bond between the velcro and the pedal, or the velcro and the board, not the bond between velcro and velcro, which for the B&Q brand, is particularly strong). I'm hoping someone else is going to post some cheaper, and stickier links! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebasshead Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 I got mine (super strength sticky backing AND super strong hooks) from John Lewis department store in the section where they sell material and other crafty bits. They sell it by the metre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john_the_bass Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 getting the velcro to stick to rubber on the pedal can be a bit of a bummer. I managed to find some 4" velcro on ebay in the US which i used to cover my pedal board - i think i got more than enough for about 18 quid shipped. It came off the hexboard eventually as it wasn't as sticky as it possibly could have been, so i got some spray carpet glue and it has done the job admirably. Search for "lyt velcro" for the US auction on ebay.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
