Velcro suggestions for ĺarge pedal switcher, and hefty pedals?

[Hiwatts-n-Gibsons]

I'm tired of regular velcro both giving out, and the adhesive giving out on my pedals. I want to get velcro that both won't lose its grip, and with adhesive that won't give out as a result of weight and, I suspect, humidity (I live in Florida).

I have a PT Pro board with a Rocktron Loop 8 Floor, and a few of my pedals are on the heavy side. It sucks to open it up to a mess of dislodged pedals with my switcher uncoupled and loose too.

I'm thinking of going with the Velcro extreme, or outdoor extreme type dual lock.

Any other suggestions? Regular Velcro isn't getting it done.

3M dual lock.

It's actually difficult to remove the pedal once installed. Make sure the surface is very clean before applying. I clean with alcohol.

Is the adhesive stronger on the dual lock as well?

I always do before putting fresh velcro on any board or pedal.

I'm not sure if the adhesive is any better on the dual lock, but I've never had any come undone from the board.

This. If you put too much on you might not be able to get it off without a prybar, or so I've heard. The adhesive is good in my experience, perhaps too good. I used it to mount a chassis inside a headshell as a last-minute thing before a flight and later I had to spend some quality time with some electronics cleaner, a knife, and a q-tip to get it off the metal. Maybe the heat from the tubes baked it on. On the flip side I've had it pop off house walls when I didn't clean them before application.

Dual lock, but yes use sparingly. I've had to use a screw driver before to pry a switcher off of my board before because I used too much.

I have a butter knife I use to get pedals off my board, haha. I have overdone some large pedals and struggled to remove them in the past.
