In Response To: Strip: Stripping Question (Parke)

1.5" or 2" masking tape is very effective in keeping strips together. No residue, and a single piece of tape can be reused 2 ot 3 times. The key to not tearing the tape is to apply the pressure in the MIDDLE of the tape, as a tear will almost always originate on the sharp cove edge.
