New and improved tapit tape review

Regardless of what I think of a product, it needs to be extensively tested. Imagine BG giving you 1 bag of a new product to trial. Or ox giving you a 300mm speedskim.

Remember when they gave us a pallet of universal one coat for free to try out took ages to get rid off the shite!

Nonsense. You're trying to get a new product Into the industry. A few hundred quid now will be peanuts if it takes off. Like limeplastering says above. BG gave him a whole pallet of finish to try and they would have given them to a fair few plasterers, costing them thousands. Jesus this is basic business strategy

He's still struggling to give the product away 18 months after his first post about it... If by some miracle this makes a shop shelf at some point he'll be at deaths door

Thing is the buisness sense has to be right il give lads that much wen there run out they will think how much they need it,there's no point giving a load of 2 strips away to 1000 plasterers its fooking pointless.give rolls away to 50 would make more sense but hey thats just me

To give small samples out of anything is ridiculous, if the end game is to get lads using said product. If you’ve confidence in your product it has to be a sensible amount. Leave rolls out at builders merchants etc, if your launching a product it’s brand awareness isn’t it. I can’t see it working for any render application that I could see, but it may have a use in domestic plastering.

It needs giving out like confetti, sink or swim,if it takes off happy days, if it sinks, sack it off and move on.

Seems like common sense to me and evidently a few others, including yourself, but not the man trying to make money out of it. I have been to the merchants and given a whole box of those hook on beads (s**t by the way). But I gave them a good test. Imagine being given enough beads to do 1 window...

Not that any of us have launched a product mind, but just seems common sense.
