Can you seam a banner with a carpet seamer?

[anim8r21]

I am doing some projects using banner material from billboards. I have been told that you can use a carpet seamer or heat gun to hem the edges. Anyone ever tried either of these techniques? I am doing some odd shapes, curves and such, so i'm not sure if tape would hold.

I'm a newbie so please take my post lightly, and more as an idea.. Could you sew the seams?

If you can't get them sewn get some HH66 vinyl cement.
Practice on some scrap and then go at it.
Sleep good at night knowing your seams & hems are not going to fail.

This reminds me - use HH66 only in a well ventilated area to avoid brain damage......
