Instabind Carpet Binding - Regular Style, Rug Binding, Ideal for Area Rugs, Durable Hold, DIY Carpet Finishing Edge - Grey, 54 ft Rolls

Great product. Easy to use and the rugs look great. Had remnant’s left over after a staircase carpet installation, so now have matching hall rugs. Color match was right on - Light Tan.

I didn’t want to pay for a customer area run for our living space. I needed an odd size- 12’x17’4”. So I went to Lowe’s and chose a 12’ wide cut to length rug that I had to bind myself for our living room. I attached pictures to show how easy it it and how good it looks! I did purchase a Ryobi cordless hot glue gun to be able to go around the whole area with ease. I will say I used extra hot glue along with the adhesive to be sure it would last our family a long time incase the adhesive wasn’t strong enough. It’s made from a durable material and very easy to use after watching the video. I got a high pile carpet and the thickness is perfect around the edge. I chose the beige color and it’s PERFECT. Instead of spending $1600 on a custom bound area rug- I was able to do it myself and the total cost of my project was $450! If you ever need to buy an area rug but you’re on a budget. I highly recommend InstaBind!

Incredible product! Easy to use. Great color options. Just what I needed to complete my project. Thank you! I will be purchasing again!

Good product overall. Gives a good clean looking finish. The adhesive which is supposed to stick to the bottom of the carpet is worthless. Plan on hot gluing it. Would buy again. Takes some time to work with, but looks outstanding. The manufacturer claimed to provide 54’ but the perimeter of my project was 52’ and I had only an inch or two to spare at the end… and I actually measured. So, “54 feet” might not mean exactly 54 feet. Good alternative to professional carpet setting, which is quite expensive.

This looks great and was easy to do, plus it saved me a bunch of money versus having the carpet bond professionally. I love the results.

Not the best adhesive backing but hot glue does the trick. It won't pull off & as long as you glue the base of the yarn at the carpet backing on berber, it won't pull a run in the carpet.Pretty happy that I didn't have to spend $1000 for binding on a 9'10" x 19', plus 2 2 x 3 throw rugs in doorways. Pleased as a pig! Made the mistake of Not cutting carpet at 1st full row on the edge but I'm cool with that for a throw rug. Use a 4 x 4 block at least 12" long to hold the binding while the hot glue solidifies. Use Surebonder 1 minute hot glue so it goes faster. Get your mindframe straight that it won't just be a stick & go project. It can be tedious. Watch the video & play some music. I also didn't use a fine tip on my hot glue gun. I already had a surebonder dual temp glue gun. The tip was ideal.

About a ten foot piece was added to the end of roll-taped with scotch tape. Total was still only about 50 feet instead of 54. I used rug tape also because I didn't have confidence that the adhesive on instabind would hold firmly with time

Easy and worked like a champ.
