They have been products in recent years launch, then fail. That tape really don't know, but I can staple quicker than that, and then less hassle removing staples If out of line. Uni finish I liked, had 1 fail with it, compensated. I see bq launch quick dry bonding, I think it will fail. Too expensive, also I can set bonding in any time I want. Bq no tape filler tried, it failed as many said on this forum. I'm hearing it is to be discontinued. Point to this post is manufacturers don't ask us guys what we would like. I have also had easifill blow off painted surfaces. Only use toupret now expensive.confidence in some of these products are low even if you follow spec, which I read and follow.

companies have to keep coming up with new ideas to keep shareholders happy, our tape evolved to make my job easier and i use it myself because its easier,if it didn't work it would not have made it this far.
whether its viable as a business is another matter.

How do we decide if it’s good or not though?

Does it just need to stick the bead on to be good? If so then scrim tape can do this already.

You could buy a roll of duct tape. run it through a chop saw and make 4 thinner rolls from 1. Then stick the bead with these leaving space either side so skim locks it in.

And I’m sure as s**t if it actually went into production it would cost considerably more than im paying for super sticky gyroc scrim £3 a roll)

I do use clouts. Always have. There’s times when you can’t use them or staples or whatever. Then I use scrim to hold them in place and skim away.

we originally tested normal duct tape but without the holes it gets trapped air which causes bubbling and delamination.
since then it has been improved with glue, surface and holes all specially chosen for plastering/ rendering.

so your scrim idea is worse than clouts but my tape is better than both.

Cut duct roll with chop saw. 1 roll turns into 4.

Thin strip on the bead leaving space either side so skim locks in.

That’s just off the top of my head .

You’re not getting it. Mine isn’t an idea. It’s improvisation. I much prefer a few clouts for a solid fix. But occasionally you can’t so have to use another method.

Some spreads just dab gear on wall. I prefer a bit of scrim to hold em in place.
