Gorilla Grip Original Rug Gripper Pad

As minor annoyances go, a rug that refuses to lie flat is fairly maddening. I bought a 6x9 rug that I wanted to put on top of some wall-to-wall carpeting to freshen up the living room. Once unrolled and smoothed out, I thought that would be the end of it. As if it had a will of its own, the rug would insist on bunching and curving overnight, mocking my insistence for order! Checking the interwebs, I found I needed some sort of underlayment to keep the damn thing in one spot. One handy-dandy search on Amazon found my solution. Gorilla-grip to the rescue! A little tricky to layout (make sure to mark-out where you want the carpet to land with some tape you can remove later), spread out the gripper material on the ground film-side up, then remove that film and smooth the whole thing out flat. The material is slightly tacky, so it's not going to leave any weird residue if you ever want to remove it. It's been 3 days, and that 6x9 rug hasn't moved a nanometer! I am a happy camper, as order has been returned to my life! Buy with confidence!
