[@adhdhikaru]

painter’s tape and masking tape are the least likely to leave residue, but scotch tape would probably be not horrible to remove as long as it’s like, less than 2 years old or so and kept in a cool place. packing tape would be a 50/50 in terms of removal since the adhesive is strong but similar to scotch. duct tape and electrical would definitely be the worst to remove after a while: duct tape because of the strength of the adhesive and electrical because it tends to leave residue after a while no matter what you do. regardless of the type of tape you use, for optimal removal you’d keep it in a cold, dry place to reduce the stickiness of the adhesive and prevent humidity from making it worse.

[@dayannahkali]

Cool video. As mentioned by others, I would be concerned about the adhesive. Painter or masking tapes are unbelievably durable. I have books from my father who used to repair them with masking tape, from forty years ago, and it is still like, you know... paper. Still well taped. On the other hand I have seen electric tape and scotch tape age very badly. Even strong tapes like ductape can finish in a messy slime over time. All that said, there is also bad masking tape which become dry and peel off too, so buy good brands. What you do not want is sticky paste all over next time you decide to mod your board, or worse, some corrosive compound on your precious expansive switches and PCB.

Please don't try out some tapes that are known to kill the PCB or have very strong adhesives, unless you want to have a nice sounding paperweight, then please go ahead.

[@suguruogawa]

I have also experimented with most of these types of tapes, and these are my findings 👍 Electrical tape - Rubbery and stretchy plastic. Makes the sound more rounded and dare I say creamy, but doesn't make the sound much deeper compared to others. I personally really like this for creamy builds. [Creamy and soft] Masking/Painters tape - Paperm like material. Only difference between masking and painters is typically the thickness, so makes sure to add a layer or two more of masking tape because it is a bit thin. Overall, the sound that these make are very well rounded. It makes the sound softer, and also more poppy. It also makes the board a lot deeper. [Best all around tape] Packing tape - Plastic material. One of the deepest sounding ones, but be sure to add a layer of maskign tape before adding this, beucause it will short your pcb and render your board useless. Although it makes the board deeper, it isn't as good at rounding the sound off, so it sounds a bit more sharp and poppy. One con of this though is that it can make the board slightly resonant, hollow and pingy in some cases becuase of the plasticky nature of it.[Deep, a bit hollow and poppy] Duct tape - Plastic on cloth reinforcement. Very similar to packing tape, but in my opinion slightly deeper because of the thickness. If you are applying duct tape, follow the same rules as packing tape, and also add less layers, as it is pretty thick. [Deepest, poppy] Scotch tape - In between paper and plastic. In my opinion it is an acceptable alternative if you only want a slight difference in sound. It makes the board poppier and louder, but doesn't affect the pitch of the board. This can be attributed to it's thinness [Poppy] Cloth tape - Made of cloth. Makes the sound a bit deeper, and is also very thick. Not recommended, as it doesn't affect the sound as much as the others. It adds a slightly tacky, sharp and honestly flat sound(As if the sound is wave is shortened). [Flat sound] My rating from deepest to clackiest Duct tape, Packing tape, Masking/Painters tape, Scotch tape, Cloth tape, Electrical tape Creamiest to poppiest Electrical tape, Masking/Painters tape, Duct tape, Packing tape, Scotch tape, Cloth tape @me if you have any more questions!! 😁

I know it's a quite a bit more expensive but Tesa Tape is in automotive applications is basically a high quality electrical tape that is nylon or "felt" backed. It's probably irreversible due to the strength of the adhesive unless you use a base layer of painters tape. It would be similar to gluing felt or braided nylon to the back of the pcb. If you're crazy and willing to risk shorting out the board, they do make aluminum tape for ductwork. Would again probably need a base layer of painters or other light adhesive non-conductive tape to make it work. The material of the tape will change the frequencies that pass through down to the case.
