I've been using the TB-10 for years. Right out of the bucket with a squirt bottle and small foam roller. Works great.
I saw something shiny and kinda new and gave it a go. Pass. If you have a press dedicated to just tees these may work great for you.
I really should have paid better attention to the video from Ryonet when they put adhesive on top of the fleece lint instead of cleaning them.
Live and learn and learn and learn some more.

Some might not know this, but liquid glue can last for more than a month (in non fleece season!). It reactivates with water and a scrub from a push broom replacement head. Heat and go. Some think the boards lose tack but its just lint that needs to be scrubbed off. Same with the double sided tack tape that Duane and I used at JSR Direct.

I would apply thinned down wb tack with a small foam paint roller. Super even coverage, better than using a card. Flash dry. After awhile, scrub with water and a stiff brush to remove lint, flash dry again, perfectly tacky again. Once in awhile add a little more wb tack.
I had the same application of pallet tape on for 5 months at one point before I did web tack and had to change out.

We switched from liquid adhesive to Printgrip because we were losing tack on larger WB runs.
We ran the same print grip on a 16 color press for about 8 months before having to change it out.

That is definitely interesting.
Rockers:
You know you can get PrintGrip from the original manufacturer in China for a fraction of the price. And it comes on rolls. And you can choose from two different widths.
Gives you much more flexibility.
