Who did you purchase it from?

Has anyone else had problems with ACC? Also, what are the pros and cons of the different type kits (80/20 etc)

That's odd. We use ACC for nearly all our cars at work and we've never had a problem. I will say though that I haven't done a Cortette in years, and that car got sold into Canada so I have no idea how it's holding up. We also haven't used the loop material since that car, everything we do is usually cut pile. Maybe they got a bad batch of material?
