Here's a link to my blog (http://samatboohockey.blogspot.com/2011/09/jazz-up-your-atg-gun.html) showing my newly brightened ATG gun. Beware the yellow side comes out very different! Eek!!

Wow, that's a really unique ATG gun! I like how it turned out.

I was thinking of getting an ATG gun, the pink one. Would you recommend it? I think the pink one only takes the narrower tape. Thanks!

Really nice idea to decorate and makes it stand out. I would also be interested to hear what you think of your ATG gun.

Well I would not be without it now! I was using those little mini tape things you get with 3m on but we make so many mini albums and projects as we sell them to friends and family for presents that we invested in the gun. We used the thin tape but it takes the wide tape as well which is handy if they are ever out of stock of the thin tape. I think the cheapest place is from Viking. My Mum CraftyK gets mine as she has one as well. In fact, Ma has 2, one for thin tape and one for thick.

It can be a bit tricky getting the rolls changed but since they are about 40m long they last a while (well a week for me lol).

Occasionally it gets some of the glue stuck on one of the rollers but it's no biggie.

The BEST thing is that if you tape over edges and stick down, you can roll off the excess glue with your fingers and there is NO mess which is great when you want the edges clean stuck down.
