Carpet tape
 

Hi trev
Try high tack masking tape I’ve seen a few clubs use this as it’s much cheaper I expect than duck tape just have a mooch around B&Q to see what they have

Hi
 

Thank you for your reply I did think of this but wasn’t sure if it would be strong enough but I will give it go

Trev I will ask at chesterfield on Saturday night and tell mark Hulme so he can pass it on when he see,s you Sunday, it does come up now and again but the people who put it down do the usual foot slide over it as it’s being laid to try and make sure it’s down as best as possible

Thank you
 

Ok bud just looking at other options every little helps bud

We've tried a few options and while a good duct tape holds carpet together it leaves residue on the surface below. We moved onto masking tape and it's better.
We use 75mm from Screwfix and it's good grippy and doesn't lift even with LMP's cornering hard on it were duct tape did lift.
A lot use the 3M blue masking tape 50mm

Hi
 

Thank you for your info as well

Good quality automotive tape works really well, easy to use and good grip - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/48mm-2-IN...YAAOSwSKlZbTPT

I know Hastings use Velcro ran over the seam of their EoS Carpet which holds it toget brilliantly and of course, re useable

Hi
 

Yes I fort of this but the speed of the atoms the bump on the joins would lunch then I think as the loop wire does it when they go over that lol
