Do you have a compressor that can put out 85-95 psi? If so I will get you all the info you need about staples.Quote:

Hey Andrew, any reason why you don't use brad nails?
A staple is much stronger, the crown of a staple will pull all the way through MDF and not break. Also a staple has two legs and the crowns holds the two legs together so there is no way it can really back out. A brad nail only has that tiny head to hold things together.Quote:

I sure do have a compressor that will do that, show me secret :)
It's a high quality, latex backed carpet.Quote:
