I bought a very low pile carpet today to put down in part of my
garage. I had planned on buying a carpet pad and tack strips but the
man at Home Depot told me that this carpet is made to be glued down. I
really like this carpet but I don't like the idea of gluing it
directly to the floor. I need the low pile for moving my pinball
machines around but I would like some padding while i'm playing the
machines.
What would be the harm of using a pad and tack strips???

Thank you for your help
