Thank you! Excellent instruction. Came here seeking info on how to glue our rug pad to our area rug so it won't come off (for area rug to stop creeping on our carpeted floor). The Gorilla rug pad sticks to the carpet very well but our area rug won't stay put on the Gorilla rug pad so we are going to glue rug pad to to the bottom of the rug using the Robert's 8200.

This might be a stupid question, but would this be the best method to create a bath mat? And use the rubber backing? I have been looking for a way to make a custom bath mat and stumbled upon tufting. Would this be a good method for making a bath mat? I was looking at the one I currently have and it looks very much like the same thing. I just didn't know if it was or if it is, if there are certain considerations, due to getting wet. Thanks so much for all the information! It has been very helpful!

Hey tim! I'm going to get into this very soon, seems like such an awesome quarantine hobby for me. If I create a design in my art software, how would you suggest I get it onto the loom/canvas? I was thinking I could either print it out and sharpie it in to have a guide for the gun, or I could even project it onto the canvas with my home projector. What do you think?

@jonahjohnson5821 4 года назад

@@tufttheworld Thanks tim. When you say pile height on your website, does that mean how much or "high" the yarn is getting pushed through the backing? and if it's too high it can always be cut?

@timkirkpatrick1749 2 года назад

Projector works great. There’s a lot of great software is out there that assist and getting it the way you want remember whatever you project onto the back of it needs to be reversed so it’s forward on the top side of your finished product. There are many and multiple ways of putting your image onto the back of your project. There are some people that even take the drawings of of what you’re wanting to work on on a large sheet of paper poking holes in the lines and then taking a chalk of a light color, like a yellow or something and dab it so it goes in through the holes and then you can draw a line with a sharpie connecting the dots. Some people will put the design up to a window and hang the cloth up against that and draw it on the canvas there again with a sharpie there of even been people that have used paints. The process goes on and on. The key is to not get in a hurry take your time you can also use the spray adhesive and spray your monks cloth or whatever medium you’re going to be stitching into with your spray adhesive gorilla spray adhesive or whatever type you’re using and put a secondary layer of monks cloth over it. This is more work to punch your rug into. Recommend letting it sit for at least 24 hours before you start doing any tufting but you can then run 3 to 4 yarns through your tufting gun and get a heavier and thicker rug surface. Makes it much softer and it makes it nicer if you plan to do any trimming. I could go on and on about this. I do highly recommend using latex for your backing.Glues were not meant for a black backing. I wish you lots of luck and God be with you.

Is liquid latex a good substitute for AAT 1132 for carpet finishing. I wanted to order it but $82 is already expensive but the shipping of $60 is what is preventing me from buying it. Do you know if AAT 1132 is sold at a hardware store. I'm trying to do online research but I can't really tell if what I am looking at is a similar product.

We don't recommend using 3095 or other cheap glues from the hardware store. They are formulated for sticking carpets to floors. They're cheap and have clay fillers in them so will break down overtime and crumble. That's why we recommend these glues and process.
