Totally random life pro tip: helicopter tape. Originally developed to protect the leading edge of rotors on helicopters. I discovered it through endurance racing where quick body damage can be repaired in seconds on cars. Also commonly used to protect paint finishes on things like mountain bikes. Insanely sticky, durable and invisible. Just repaired my vacuum cleaner with it - highly recommend having a roll of it in your arsenal of tools.

ty, will look into it
If it's as good as you say there will be imitators. What is the brand name?
I believe 3M was the originator, surprisingly. The brand i use is here though: https://www.amazon.com/ISC-Racers-Tape-HT2128-Transparent/dp/B000TPC7HU
