Velcro strip for securing carpet edges

[Stevie N]

Do any of you knowledgeable folk out there have any preferences for strong sticky back Velcro,
There are quite a few different products out there, but it’s nice to get some hands on recommendations .

I’ve used the Velcro brand heavy duty stick on in a few places around the van...although not on the floor, or carpet. I think you can get a sew and stick version for carpets?

It’s pretty good, quite strong. If you are sticking it on a surface make sure you clean the surface with an alcohol wipe, or something like window cleaner first, it makes it stick much better.

We found 2 strips of velcro lifted the carpet up too much so we use double sided tesa tape. It's easy to replace if you need to remove the carpet.
