Pool Cage Re-Screening


Recommended Posts

Hey guys!  Hope this question is appropriate as it's "Pool Related" but not directly about pools.  I have the standard aluminum constructed cage 2x2 aluminum that currently has standard 20x20 insect fiberglass screen.  I am replacing all my 36" bottom panels with Pet Screen because my dog keeps tearing out the screen when it gets old.  The pet screen is much tougher but also thicker.  I installed one panel this weekend using the standard 5/16 inch  (.315) flat spline and it was a royal pain but with a lot of work and stretching it, it came out good.  My question is for anyone that has installed screen or better yet pet screen, what size spline do you find works best?  They make a .290 that is expensive as hell and not sure .025 inches would even be much different especially with stretching.  Maybe just some better tips.  I've heard to used dish soap.

Thank You!
