I've also used liquid bandages but eventually the sweat/oil built up underneath and the attachment was weaker and if anything lasted a shorter amount of time.
I'm currently trying ProTouch No Sweat.
The jury is still out on that, as its not really been put to the test.
We're having a rubbish Summer in the UK and apart from the odd humid day the temperature isn't causing as much sweating as usual.

I have tried the liquid bandages before and have found them terrible in dealing with sweat also. I have found 2 antiperspirant deodorants that have been effective. One is Maxim, its good but the problem I found with it was after applications theres an oily residue for a while so you couldn't attach tape or glue for a while. The product recommends application the night before. Not many shops stock it so I was ordering it online and it's expensive. Then I went to the chemist and just asked if they had a fragrance free antiperspirant and surprisingly they did and it seems to do a great job of keeping the sweat from appearing and it also has no oily residue, dries immediately. Its called Mitchum unscented... However as I said, these antiperspirants use aluminium of some sort in order to prevent sweat. That stuff isn't good soaking into your scalp that close to the brain. There are some great natural products for so many things, I'll eventually find a great natural antiperspirant...
