I put it up in a ponytail and then use a headrag.

I did mean snaps. Don't know why I used the word rivets. Thanks for the advice.

I just posted in new member introductions, sorry I jumped the gun. <br><br> Yeah it's an FX kit that I had bought years ago and wanted to initially put it on a mannequin in my den. I have put it together and have done quite a few charity events here in Winnipeg. Just annoying that the velcro would keep coming apart.<br><br> I do appreciate the advice. Im not too worried about being Uber screen accurate. Thanks for the advice everyone.

Hi everyone! I am new to the trooping thing, and finally put my kit together after 12 years of sitting on it. Since day one, I have had a hard time getting Velcro to stick to the Armor. The only thing that seems to stick is the residue left over from the pieces when they are removed. Yes it was industrial strength Velcro. I have researched techniques for removing the residue, but nothing seems to work. I am going to modify armor with rivets and thinking of using ABS glue for certain pieces. Would anyone know if I could just use the glue on top of the residue? Or does anyone have any secret techniques to removing the old residue that the velcro has left behind?
