And many stores prefer them in their rental stock because of their durability and long life. Two of the major band instrument manufacturers, Yamaha and Buffet, install Green Back pads at the factory on all of their student clarinets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGreen Back pads can be installed in the exact same manner as regular bladder skin pads:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove old glue from key cup.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApply hot melt glue or shellac to back of pad or key cup.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeat key cup (see \u003cb\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/pad-cup-heater.html\"\u003ePad Cup Heater\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e), insert pad and level (use minimal heat).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether working with standard bladder skin pads or Green Back pads, opinion varies as to whether a 'seat' or crease in the pad surface is desirable. If a seat is used, it is generally agreed that it should be of minimal depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith skin pads a seat is generally accomplished by lightly clamping normally open keys. Green Back pads can be given a seat by using a hot air gun (low setting) held for a 4-5 seconds several inches away from the pads. Then hold the key in a closed position until pad cools. Light action key clamps (see \u003cb\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/valentino-flute-clarinet-key-clamp.html\"\u003e#4702 Key Clamp\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e) may be used if a deeper seat is desired.
