“I was teaching hand finishing in New York City when Apla-Tech’s Eastern Rep brought me a Continuous Flow (CFS) Tape Apla-Cator. I had never used it before and after I was shown how it worked I taped for 2 ½ hours. Since we only had 250’ rolls for hand tapers, I had to stop only once every 250’ to change the roll of tape. I was surprised to see that I put up 20 rolls when I was finished. Since the taper was so light and had no drag feel I didn’t feel tired when I was done. When I told other finishers I knew how well it went they said I was BSing them. I was pretty impressed and recommend that taper to anyone.”

“We originally had two finishing crews with conventional mechanical tools. We purchased two sets of “Air” tools. We noticed a considerable difference in ease of the tools and an increase in production. Then we were one of the first contractors to purchase Apla-Tech’s Continuous Flow Drywall Finishing Tool System (CFS). The one CFS set we purchased produced the same amount of footage as the two air sets of Apla-Tech together.”

“We were mechanical tool finishers. We finish high end custom $1 Million + homes & elderly housing. We first purchased the “Air” system from Apla-Tech and we are very happy with the increased production and especially the ease. We then purchased the Apla-Tech CFS tools when they came to the market and again cut our production schedule (time of completion) by ½ for either type of project.”

“We are approximately the second largest commercial drywall contractor in our market. We gave Apla-Tech an award for 2007 & 2008 for projects we used the tool that helped increase finishing production far above our anticipated numbers. We presently have two sets of tools.”
