I dislike cork tape, too thick for my pudgies, so always use the old styled cloth. With cloth tape, I prefer to use double sided tape underneath, both to hold it in place and to provide additional cushioning, since cloth tape is quite thin. There are different thicknesses of the double sided tape available, on up to really thick, so you can have the amount of softness in the bar covering that you prefer, or you can just keep wrapping around with the thin stuff. I haven't had a problem with it moving around after installation in this manner. A thin coat of shellac or urethane over the tape will finish the job nicely.
