Make a Dispenser Slot in the Coil Box
When you have a lot of flashing or trim to bend, it’s best to buy your coil stock in 50-ft. x 24-in. rolls. But don’t just pull the coil out of the box and cut the tape. If you do, the coil will start to unroll and be difficult to control. Dispensing coil from the box is the best way to keep it clean and prevent dents and scratches.
Cut an opening along one side of the box and pull out just the lengths you need. You may have to open one end of the box in order to cut the tape that secures the roll, and then reseal it with tape.
