The best tape to use is 3M 471 tape. You can find it many places online in different widths and you can also find it locally at some automotive paint supply stores. My local Finishmaster store carries it. It is also the best tape to use for paint masking because paint won't wick under it like masking tape. It is also the standard tape that aircraft racers use to seal up gaps before a race because it peels off easy without hurting paint, but will stay in place at 200+ MPH.
For another solution consider a canopy cover. I made one for my KR with Sunbrella brand canvas. I used a flanel on the inside sewed to the canvas to keep from scratching the canopy. You can buy the canvas, straps, buckles, heavy duty canvas thread, etc. from online canvas supply stores. Mine turned out great and it was my first time trying to sew canvas. Only experience before that was home ec class in 8th grade.

I'm thinking some kind of tape that will not pull off the paint or leave glue residue. Electrical tape ? Mike Sylvester kr2s builder Birmingham,AL.
