THE BUYING ANSWER
Start with a clear definition.
Identify the tape material, colour, finished visible width and the edge construction it is meant to finish. Keep the component reference separate from the width visible after sewing. Review the assembled edge before approval.
The decision behind the detail.
The same tape can look different depending on folding and attachment. Match the specification to the finished result rather than the roll label alone.
PREPARE ONLY WHAT IS RELEVANT
Three details to bring.
- Tape identity
- Record the selected component reference.
- Finished width
- State the width visible on the completed edge.
- Edge location
- Mark all areas using this binding.
Check together
- Compare both faces of the finished edge.
- Check the tape around curves and joins.
- Keep cut width and visible width distinct.
