Will hot melt glue damage the drum/cymbal material?

[Nitebytes]

Hi all,
i hope this is DIY enough for this channel.

I'm looking to add EL Wire to my kit for a bit more of a light show. I'm using blutac to hold the wires in place right now, but it doesn't hold for long while playing, so I was thinking to hot glue the wires to my cymbals and drums (they're PD8 pads, the black gummi ones) but I don't want to damage or break the pads
Thanks.

Hot glue on rubber will not damage the cymbals... if it sticks.

Either that or the red 3M double side tape is pretty strong as well.

Many thanks, I'll give it a shot.
