Talk:Scrim (material)

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)

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

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)

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

Reqphoto
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? r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 03:48, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Pedantry
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)

non wovens
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)

caption
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)
