PSA: I found out from a mill rep that 60% of carpet seam failures are due to improper adhesive spread rate, not the adhesive itself. | Carpet Installers - The Design Community Hub
Man, that makes so much sense. I've seen seams bubble up and everyone blames the glue. But if the spread is too thin, it just doesn't grab. Or it's too thick and never really dries right, just stays gummy under there. You can have the best adhesive in the world and it won't matter if it's not put down right. That's a huge relief to know it's usually the install, not the product failing.
