If I use anything on any drum, it's just a slice of Moongel.
It's just enough to knock down a tiny bit of tone to where it tightens it up just a bit, but leaves it open.
The pices are cut to about the size of the word "Remo" on the logo. I cut it sideways and get 6 or 7 pieces from one square.
Never tired the Evans stick on thing, but I've seen them in the shop on a snare and it does work.
