Gator Board edge Tape

[dsmskyline]

Ive seen it online once before searching around. Didn't think to bookmark the site and now I have a request from a client to cover the foam edges of gator board for a more "finished" look and thought of the tape.

Anyone know what Im taking about or where I could find it? Ive been searching on google for a while today and had no luck.

Thanks for the help,
Thomas

Depending how thick the Gator foam your using, couldn't you use the edge capping for aluma-cor and such?

The gator is 1/2" and cant cover the printed face of the piece, the edging would need to either stick to the foam or have barbs that would penetrate it.

um - scale up your print - adding bleed - enough to wrap around to the back of the FB.

i really cant see this hanging on to the edge of porous uneven surfaced foam-board edge.

Neither can I but it's an option.

We use the melamine edging they use to finish kitchen cupboard doors, stuck on with double sided tape. When we have to.

Thats what i was looking for, different site but appears to be the same stuff.

Hopefully it holds up well.

My short term memory loss is interfering with me remembering the name of the company that specialized in "edge caps". They promoted alot in the early 2000's, but their name escapes me. Somebody else, help me out!
