Can this be moved to the main entry for scrim?

A pair of pictures, one showing what a scrim looks like when lit from in front and one showing what it looks like when lit from behind, would greatly improve this article. -Toptomcat 18:37, 20 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge[edit]

I suggest we merge this with scrim and treat the textile sense under gauze. - PKM 17:33, 15 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

removed merge tag which has not been discussed since the person proposing the merge. Makes no sense to merge to a disam. page --Kevin Murray 22:55, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Rating[edit]

Justified as start as it contains detailed explanation of one aspect (use to create variably transparent screen). 81.76.25.63 (talk)

Reqphoto[edit]

It should be very easy to get some photos of this. Doesn't anyone here have a kid in a high school play or something? rʨanaɢ talk/contribs 03:48, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Pedantry[edit]

The article uses 'scrim' for material and 'a scrim' for a piece of material. So is 'scrims' a valid word? The use of a collective noun (scrim) and a plural (scrims) gets confusing! Is there a tidy solution? Vendeka (talk) 19:35, 24 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

non wovens[edit]

the term scrim is frequently used in the non wovens (felt) trade literature; can some one supply a meaning ? thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.7.3.253 (talk) 14:17, 29 June 2011 (UTC) You are correct. The article lead is MISLEADING, as there is a large industry on scrim for a NONWOVEN family of products. See: http://www.scrimco.com/whatisscrim.html I suggest the article here in Wikipedia have a new intro paragraph that respects the nonwoven scrim. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.110.132.97 (talk) 15:38, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]


caption[edit]

i dont really get what scrim is from looking at the picture, and the caption doesn't explain it well. someone should write a different caption for this image. id do it but i still dont know what scrim is — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:6C55:4600:F420:680E:8B77:342E:9E72 (talk) 09:49, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
