Just wondering if anyone on the group knows why the Silva-Seam
Method of carpet heat joining dos`nt seem to be around anymore ?
Whats the reason,anyone know ?
Around 1980 or so,I think it started to become popular,as I recall
The initial outlay,was at the time quite expensive.
I was in those days `hell for leather`doing nothing but on site cleaning
And worked with at least 2 fitters that said this method was a distinct
Advantage over normal heat iron bonding.Easier manually,and a better
Joint.Nothing beats sewing I know,but that I suppose is another debate.
Can`t remember the last time I saw an uplifted carpet bonded with
Silva-Seam.
Other than Ken and `JB` is there anybody else can go back to `the old days`.
