I like the Gray Industrial grade, seems to last longer. I get it at Home Depot.

Thanks ron w,
I had bought some other brand, an it just seemed to be to thick. I will check out the industrial velcro at Home Depot.

I use the thick on the shelf and the thinner stuff on the side. I ran out of the thin last week so I also need to find some more..I think Walmart was my source and also just about any craft store...

The gray stuff is a bit thicker but seems to last well and act as a cushion. I have had good luck with it!

For my strike plate build up, I used the black heavy duty, trying to predict it's thickness after compressed, and it worked out fine to a shave over 1/16th"
