DeJesus, I want to thank you for this very helpful video. You are a very good and patient teacher. I like that your teaching style is not rushed and you not only explain things very well, but you enunciate so that people like me can hear and understand you. I have been watching your videos and am working up the courage to paint a Baltimore Ravens themed pair of Airforce 1s for my husband for Christmas. (I am currently a 63 year old Grandmom who paints rocks for my grandson.) I will continue to watch your great videos and hopefully one day I will be able to share with you a video of shoes that I have painted, with inspiration from my new teacher, named DeJesus. I wish you well in all that you do. Sincerely, Diana

I've found some specialty tapes at the big box home repo store, like the metal duct tape that comes with a backing paper, is super thin, very strong adhesive but peels off without leaving residue, and conforms to any curve. And in electrical is a super thin rubber tape, good adhesive and super flexible. This is not regular vinyl electrical tape.
