I have a small run of wall-to-wall carpet that I want to join along a seam in a
hallway -- maybe 3 feet across.
I purchased some carpet heat bond tape at the Borg.
Can I use an old clothes iron to activate the teap and make the seam
or do I need to rent a real seaming iron?
If so, how do I use the iron properly?

* it hardens?
Will this make a big mess and ruin the iron?
How about Hot Glue?
