Anyone know where I can get "waterproof", aka rubber, velcro? Or is this undeeded, should I just buy regular velcro and stop getting a stomach ulcer by worrying over little things?

Purpose: All velcro received with my PX25 Fiber Optic Cable (for my Intova IC600 and Intova Slave Strobe) has lost it's stick-ness. This velcro wasn't fabric, but instead rubber, with many little tiny balls which would weave between eachother and "stick".
 
Any velcro is fine. Many commercial BCD's have velcro commberbuns, you'll note many neoprene gloves with velcro wrist straps.

Double-sided (sticks to itself if you wrap it around something) is great for accessories.
Best,

Go to Radio Shack and buy component building tape. It's the same stuff, clear, plastic hard velcro. About $1.99 for a lifetime supply.

Thanks for the input. I found a place online that sells it $1 per foot. And by "it" i mean mushroom shapped plastic velcro that "snaps" when put together.
