Glad to help....  https://www.amazon.com/Patco-5560-Re.../dp/B07BXBHRXP For the case I use Patco 5560/CLR336 5560 Removable Protective Film Tape: 3" x 36 yd, Clear....^^^.... This protective film is exactly like what you peeled off the surface of your brand new cell phone, tablet, lap top, navigation device except it's thicker, very useful for other thing & can be reuse.... The best part is don't leave any sticky residue..... https://www.amazon.com/ELEGOO-Polyim...ds=Kapton+tape For the bracelet I use Kapton tape....^^^.... It easy to work on the bracelet since it transparent, thin and conformable enabling masking of uneven surface.... It also don't leave any sticky residue....
