Pro tip: Heard a guy at the supply house talking about his seam roller trick
I was picking up some seam tape in Springfield last Tuesday and overheard an older installer telling his buddy to always keep his seam roller in a bucket of warm water between uses. He said it keeps the rubber from getting hard and cold, which makes it press the adhesive way better into the backing. I tried it on a job the next day (a big living room with a tricky pattern match) and it really did seem to make a smoother, tighter seam. Anyone else have a little trick like that for their tools?
