I just purchased Limiquest Big Bounce and I love it. If you already own a Better Beamer sold on the birdsasare.com website, I have found the large elastic band provided with the Better Beamer system works just great to secure the Limiquest Big Bounce to my flash head and voila, no velcro. I am sure it would work for other Limiquest bouncers.

I did this for a while - it is a good thing to do if you don't want velcro, and it does work with my PocketBounce and UltraSoft.
But it gets to be a pain, and I ended up velcroing after about 8 or 10 times of playing with the rubber band.

Now I feel dumb... what about takin velcro off? I put the wrong size on... :oops: :oops:
I thought about "goo be gone" or whatever it's called, but I'm afraid it'll corrode the 550's head.

Goo-Gone will be safe. Don't let it sit, of course.

Use acetone. It works and will not take the finish off your flash. This is actually one of the best liquids to use to remove most adhesives from just about anything without damaging the surface. Take a rag of something small and pour a little onto the area where the velcro and surface meets. This will allow the acetone to run down between the adhesive and surface for you to easily prey it away. Finish the cleanup by wiping with the acetone.

Well guys, just a suggestion. It works for me and I will do anything but put velcro on my flash heads or anything else. I have had the Big Bounce fastened this way for a few days now and it is very secure, hasn't moved at all.
