Bellows Repair Tape

[jtrout]

I have a Honer Double-Ray Black Dot box and the bellows tape is wearing through. "A stitch in time saves nine", leads me to seek repair tape. The color is "gold". Does anyone know a source?

Forum rules prohibit mixing free reed instruments and constitutional law. Your next violation will result in your account being canceled. I suggest you exercise prior restraint.

The House of Musical Traditions carries bellows tape in different colors. The catch is that the tape is essentially a long strip of metalized textured fabric with no adhesive. You have to spread white glue evenly on a board, press your tape into it, then apply the tape to the bellows.

My Hohner's bellows tape is in the same shape as yours. I bought a roll of tape a few years ago, but actually applying it seemed like such a messy, difficult task that I've been procrastinating all this time.
