Hi Sifus,
I would like to ask which kind of tape is safe for tape mod? I have been lurking on the internet and all of them mentioned either painter tape or masking tape, 3M Painter tape to be exact. I check the 3m Painter tape in Ace Hardware, that thing cost around RM 60 ~ RM90, its too freaking expensive.. Will this Nippon paint works? Or what are the recommended branch to go with?  |

QUOTE(zzzz52 @ Oct 22 2023, 11:04 AM) I just use those RM5 masking tape and it works like a charm if you are looking for that tape mod popping sound. If 1 layer is not enough, u can use 2 layers. Ah thanks for the info, i keep seeing post on reddit about ppl shorting their PCB when doing the tape mod so i want to be sure before i do it myself.Experiment with cheaper material first. I don't think 3M will have any benefit in the tapemod vs those cheaper masking tape.  Actually i saw Mecha was also using the nippon paint washi tape for the tape mod service. I guess if they are using it for their customer board, it should be good enuf for me.  |
