The Rycote Overcover pads are a disposable mounting and windshield solution for lavalier microphone use in gusty, outdoor environments. There are 3 sheets of 10 pads (30 pads total) supplied in each package. The pads are double coated with a peel-off adhesive and a soft-woven material. The adhesive is peeled onto clothing, providing a tacky mounting surface for lavalier microphones. The supplied fur disc is capable of suppressing noise caused by hi-wind gusts. The disc is placed over the microphone and adhesive surface, sandwiching the microphone and eliminating wind, structure and rustling noise.

Comments about Rycote Overcovers - Lavalier Wind Cover:
I used these two days ago at a shoot where I needed to hide the mics on three talent. They worked PERFECTLY on two of the three (the last one I had to improvise using moleskin). I'm going to buy some more just so I have them on hand.
Of course you can use the wind cover more than once :-)

Comments about Rycote Overcovers - Lavalier Wind Cover:
These adhesive pads stick on well unless transferred to multiple surfaces more than twice. For example, if placed on the actor's face, you could move it once to another part of their face, but after that it will loose it's stickiness. The wind cover does reduce the wind noise significantly, but it does not stick well over the microphone to the adhesive pad. The furry cover also looks really strange on the actor's face because it is really furry.
