[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 380231, member: 4485"] Both of those tapes are electrical insulating tapes. The white would be cloth tape & some brands come in black or white. Both are heat resistant. Example: [url]https://www.reedsprospecting.com.au/shop/detail/coil-tape-/[/url] The black tape for the Evo coils is 3M Super 88 a professional grade electrical PVC tape also heat/weather resistant. Example: [url]https://www.reedsprospecting.com.au/shop/detail/nugget-finder-super-88-coil-tape/[/url] You can buy them cheaper than detector shops sell it but it's probably just as convenient to get it if you're there or ordering other gear. Edit: Leukoplast contains zinc oxide which is a semiconductor. Not a great conductor like gold or copper but not an insulator either. I wouldn't use it but each to their own. [/QUOTE]
