(This is almost too petty a point to reply, but "sticky backed plastic" is a sheet of adhesive transparent film, like you'd use to cover books. I think they probably would have said "sticky tape")
- rjsw 9y agoThe main UK brand of "sticky backed plastic" was Fablon.
- laumars 9y agoI don't know why you are being downvoted because you are correct. I'd further your post and also point out the correct term to vacuum is still "vacuum". The BBC didn't invent that term like they did "sticky backed plastic". The radio is often quite amusing when there are guests on there who accidentally slip a brand name. Presenters often then reply with the same rehearsed quote: "Other brands of [cola] also exist."
- bonaldi 9y agoThey literally did say "sticky-backed plastic" for sellotape, which left me bemused as a nipper
- dboreham 9y agoEspecially bemused because that's not what they meant. SBP is Fablon or plastic film that comes in a wide (2+ ft) roll and is primarily used to cover books.
