[SML] Dutch manning Flats

[John Taylor]

Greetings Listers,

What are you using these days for dutch manning flats? We use to use 
book binding tape. We would cut to size and dip in the water bucket put 
it on, let dry and paint. Great results. Come strike time, tape peels 
right off and all done nice and clean.

Somewhere along the way over the last few years, they started use all 
other sorts of tape with very mixed to poor results. Recently the 
painters started using Gaff tape but that is just to expensive. I just 
Googled the book tape and there are many choices. So I wanted to see 
what others are using.

We are a community theatre and while we have great record keeping I can 
not find the company or type of book tape we use to use.

Many thanks,
