YMMV?

Hope this worked for you, Oaktree. Haven't checked back on the thread for several days.

Hate to write long, envolved, detailed and sort of windy posts but I should have maybe warned you I ruined one tarp before getting it down right. The tarp was stout enough, OK, but was ugly and wrinkled as the backside of a mud fence.

I'd have also commented that the seams I made had to be wider than a commercial seam, about two inches. BTW, I used the adhesive for the gray PVC.

It's a wrestling match, to get it flat and right. It took me, my wife and some sandbags to hold down the loose corners of each tarp and the best we ever won was two falls out of three!

Good Luck!
