Edge Sealing

For carpet backings that require edge sealing, apply an appropriate seam adhesive covering the thickness of the primary and secondary backing without contaminating face yarns on both edges of the seam. This ensures that all edges trimmed for seaming are protected from edge ravel.  Allow seam adhesive to dry before proceeding with the installation to prevent transfer to the face yarn.
