TRIO Adhesive

[mamakimberly]

This is a carryover from Shanon's mono thread...

Trio actually comes in 800" lengths, whereas monoadhesive is 472" in length.

Trio comes in 3mm, 6mm and 12mm widths (http://www.coilconnection.com/Trio.htm)

It looks like an 800" refill is 4.95, which is not bad IMO. I think I might try it!

Monoadhesive is 8.4mm in width for comparison, btw.

SOOOO, who has USED Trio? How exactly does it apply? I'm REALLY curious!

I would like to know also as I seem to be always in search of the perfect adhesive. I thought I had found it in the Dot adhesive but the dispenser is now so gunked up with adhesive that the gears wont work. I am going to try to clean them out with some alcohol. I liked it as it seem to be easy to put down and would put down the whole strip not just part of it like the Tombow does sometimes.... all you replace is the roll of sticky and not the gears and perhaps this is why Tombow replaces the whole innards..

It is a delimma and a sticky situation.. :p

Funny! That pun made me giggle (sticky situation).

I called a local stamp store in Va Beach (the owner is just toooo sweet, I love her). Anyway, she loves it and she is slamm sold out. She said that they are on BO till May. She says that the work great and fit into the hand nicely.

I hope someone out there that's tried them will jump on and let us know what you think.

so how do they work? do they roll on? or what?

[Angela Bounds]

I think they roll on. The different size tape stacks ontop of each other, and one size comes out on each of the 3 corners of the triangle (gosh that sounds confusing). I've heard that it is neat, neat, neat.

I'm going to try it.

I have one.
It does just roll on. I am a little challenged with it. I have used mono as long as I have been stamping. For me it is going to take some getting used too. It does have 3 different sizes and will make it so much easier for so many things for stamping to scrapbooking. The guy at Stamp Salado was having trouble keeping them in stock too.
I hope this helps.
