The Rycote Undercover disc is a disposable mount and windshield used for mounting lavalier microphones underneath clothing. Included are ten black, ten grey, and ten white discs (30 total). The discs are doublecoated 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 woven fabric disc is placed over the microphone and adhesive surface, sandwiching the microphone, and eliminating structure and rustling noise caused by movement of clothing, cables, etc.

Assuming shooting a wedding outdoors on a breezy ...
Assuming shooting a wedding outdoors on a breezy day using Senn with ME2 lav - would better sound be found with Rycote undercover, or with a fuzzy windjammer outside the clothing?
I've used the ME2 extensively, but mainly indoors. From my outdoor use experience while riding a bicycle, I would expect the windjammer to be better if there's more than mild winds. I've use the fuzzy inside clothing to hide it (although it is bulky) while bike riding and it is notably better when the winds (or riding speed) is over 5-10 mph. If it's mild winds only, say less than 5 mph, likely the rycote will work but you'd need to test it. My Rycote experience has been variable and have had some clothing and rustling noise -- care is needed in its use for best results.
I'm an audio enthusiast, but not an audio expert. Hope this helps.

question
What size are these pads? Do they work with a Sennheiser me2 lav?
The Stickies are 20mm (0.78 ) round at the widest, and approx. 23mm long (0.90 ). As Mark said - the ME-2 at 6.5mm (1/4 ) will comfortably fit onto the Stickie. Cheers
