cap cove strips

Had 2 boxes of cove and 2 boxes of capping today all with f61 all windows were open but wow I was smashed when are they going to bring out a self adhesive cap / cove like doorbars and nosings etc or is there some which I dont knkw about

 

Uzin do a solvent free contact adhesive. Works just as well but no flying round the ceilings

 

Have used that one but imo nothing is as good as 61 solvent frees just take to long to go off

 

did a staircase in a school once, started at top and worked my way down, got to the bottom tried to get up and fell over.. ahhhhh f60... it's heavier than air..

 

Ive always been ok on stairs with 61 found It rises more its bloody grabfast canisters that sink to the bottom evil stuff

 

You want to try the level zone contact. It knocks u out the second you open the tin

 

Have to get some for old bloke I had helping me today **** me he dont shut up if hes not moaning about the world hes singing the wrong words to every song on radio badly

 

Do people still use f60! Jantac or contact spray is the way! Plus apparently f60 contains something called,toulerine very bad for you........

 

Contact tape ?

 

we know, best used in a cupboard 6.30am for 30minutes...

 

Dont think that zega tape or contact spray are good enough for sticking capping myself, always use f60 tried and tested.

 

But it sticks like f**k.
Much as I like contact spray, F61 is miles better for some installs.
I have been bending capping round 90 degree wall`s today, in about 5 degree`s. Contact spray will stick it, but it will gap on the returns.
F61 with a notch, and some heat, will stick it flat to wall.

 

Rather have gaps on my capping than the big c.... Used f60 in a power station chemical lab they went mental and pointed out how bad the chemicals in it were, each to their own I suppose!

 

When you say " they went mental", did they start behaving like you? You Nutter!

 

Welcome back Dave, ain't seen you on the forum for a while, maybe you have answered your emails and the company has gone big time...........

 

my boss got me to use stikataks contact spray yesterday, worked well enough but f60 seemed to stick better with the mitred corners, well the external ones. i was workin on a boat on monday and had to go outside for a good 10 minutes my eyes were streaming with water!

 

I've just got 200 m of cap n cove from Gemini adhesives. Apparently there gold will stick the capping solid!! I'm in two minds as when I stuck a load of capping last year I had to go back to f60 as the gold wasn't holding it but Gemini are guaranteeing it so ill give it a go. But I do hate using the f60 easier with spray.

 

i just started capping and coving last summer. Never done it in my 7 years till last summer with my new company. Good skill getting into, wouldn't say im perfect at it but im getting better, not the easiest job to do when your on your own most of the time, f60 is nasty and messy too!

 

When using the gemini adhesive no it doesnt stick aswell as 61 when using gradus capping as when you jse whatever tool to feed vinyl into capping it does pull from the wall even when using heat but using it with the ifda capping its really good and sticks well as you dont need a tool to help tuck vinyl under capping

 

Which capping is that mate is that Gemini capping ?
