The 3M Flex & Form Conformable Runner

I’m very excited- I recently found a new product that has been evading me for as long as I have been doing remodeling projects!
Imagine the age-old hassle of protecting finished areas, stairs, and walk paths of locations where you are remodeling. Its always been tedious to not only put down runners, but to SECURE them so they don’t bunch up causing a tripping hazard. This doesn’t even include exposing finished floor to potential damage. Can you relate with me the frustration this has caused us all?!
Luckily I found a new product from 3M, its called the Flex & Form Conformable Runner. This product is the first I have ever seen to actually hold itself to stairs and railing with no tape at all! I have even used it to protect bathtubs and odd-shaped pieces of furniture when demo and paint are the project of the day.
If you are looking to protect your project correctly, as I always am, pick up the Flex and Form Conformable Runner from 3M. Stay tuned as 3M has come out with some more amazing stuff I’ll let you know about!

I know your frustration. This product would have been a great thing to have when my husband was recently completing a new bathroom installation. When the workers began with the sheetrock, putty, & sanding - well, as you can image dust was everywhere. They managed to cover certain things with thin plastic, but my treadmill was such an odd shape that the plastic wouldn’t remain in place. It took me two days once the work was complete to clean up all the dust. This product would have saved me time & frustration. I will definitely be purchasing this item soon.

This product seems pretty cool. I wish the moving company would’ve used this when we moved in our new house.

There is nothing more irritating than paying someone to do work in your home and then having to spend extra time cleaning up after them. What a relief there is a product that will product my home and save me precious time!!

What a great product! This would have been nice to have when we were redoing some sheetrock in our living room and were trying to cover furniture and the stairway. I’ve always like 3M from their office products to their home improvement products. I’m not at all surprised they came up with such an ingenious product! Thanks for sharing! I’ll definitely have to remember this for next time!

What a great idea! I think it is just the thing to cover a baby grand piano that is really susceptible to damage from construction dust.

Wish I knew about this when I was remodeling my master bathroom, I have the knicks in the tub to prove it. I will own this before my next project. Thanks for the tips Chip.

Why didn’t I think of that? My husband is a neat freak and a do-it-yourself guy. This is the perfect product to keep us both sane during his constant projects for our house and for his business. He uses lots of 3M products because, well, he’s a perfectionist and likes the good quality stuff. I’ll send him a link to your site. Thanks for the tip!

How much is this? I could use it when I do murals in kids rooms. Save me time and trouble moving their furniture all around.
