KP-65 kick pad wear

KP-65 kick pad wear

2005-03-05 by mtremeth

Dont know if anyone will find this useful, but after trying a sticky 
bass drum pad on the KP65 to reduce wear on the rubber surface it 
doesnt appear to stick very well (as noted elsewhere in this forum).
 
I tried a black Fablon patch (plastic covering with a sticky back -
bought in 1 metre square - cut a circle out) its thinner and sticks 
well. It does a great job of protecting the rubber outer layer(been 
hammering the life out of it all week and its still like new).

off to play some more :)
