Instabind DIY Carpet Binding Tape - Regular Style Edge Trim - Beige, 54 LFT

The Instabind product was much easier to use than I anticipated. The color was perfect, the directions were clear and the entire project went very well. I would recommend Instabind to anyone, regardless of skill level.

Watch the video to take away some of the apprehensions before you use this product. It's easy to use but the method of snipping the cord to get started is better explained in the video. Be sure to use the glue gun tip shown to make it easier to apply and less chance of burning yourself with hot glue, and I recommend using glue that specifically mentions less glue strings. The color of the binding I chose, to turn my new carpet "scraps" into protective mats, looks great with my carpet. So far I am very happy with this product and my results from using it.

This produce is awesome! Easy to apply and looks great!

Product works well. Easy to work with. Adhesive could be a little more sticky.

Love this product, works great

Love this! I used this on a 7' x 12' roll carpet that needed to have the edges finished. Easy to apply as long as you have the longer glue gun nozzle. It's also very durable.

It works fairly well but the stickiness is lacking.

This binding worked so easily and looks amazing! We have an odd shaped tv area and needed a custom rug to fit it. I decided to buy an area rug, trim it, and use instabind. I was a bit nervous, but it was sooooo much easier than I expected. The rug was about 12x11 with a diagonal cut and it only took me like an hour to bind the entire thing. It looks completely professional - we get compliments on the rug all the time and no one believes me when I tell them I bound it myself. Do it!

I used this to convert an existing fitted stair carpet into a stair runner. Although easy to use, the process did take quite some time to complete due to the length of the carpet and the need to hot glue between the edge of the carpet and the binding; I found it easiest to use a hot glue gun with a long nozzle to get into the gap and complete 6" at a time. As I was applying the binding to a carpet that had been laid for a couple of years some of the pile had naturally flattened so it was not always easy to achieve a really neat edge with the binding - would certainly work much better with new/unused carpet. Overall I think it is a good product, good value and I'm happy with the finished result. Delivery was also a lot quicker than expected.

Very happy with it.

Just 6 bucks more than buying right from the manufacturer so price is fair. Easy Easy Easy install. Just need a good glue gun and have to buy the long tip to get a clean job. Not a better product t\for DYI' ers. Simple to do. UPDATE: Got the long tips for glue gun. Simple simple simple installation and looks as good as factory. Take your time with the hot glue with 12" sections at a time and make sure the gun is very hot. This was a breeze. Watch the product video it makes things easy.

Product allowed me to cut large rug into two pieces and saved on costs by not employing a professional.

If you take your time the results look professional
