When both sections of synthetic turf are secure and the seam is perfectly in place, fold open both edges of the two sections to expose the subgrade. Place SGW seam tape down the center of the seam and secure with spikes, nails or staples. This will prevent the seam tape from rippling while placing the glue.
**Please note: SGW seam tape is manufactured with a plastic film on one side. This side should be face down and resting on the subgrade materials. The plastic film prevents moisture coming up through the seam tape, which may cause failure. **

Roofing Repair Tape is NOT! Made for synthetic turf seams. Many contractors are using this economical, fast roofing repair tape as a synthetic turf seaming tape. Roofing Repair Tape is not manufactured or tested as a Synthetic Turf seam tape. It does not have the ability to successfully cohere two sections of synthetic turf together. The pictures below show that the roofing repair tape only touches the exterior of the gauges and does not reach up and between the gauges to the backing. I personally have witnessed hundreds of seam failures that were seamed together with roofing repair tape. You can easily pull the seam from the tape months after the roofing tape has been placed. I recommend to never use this as synthetic turf seam tape.
