Hi, we just got these two items. How the heck do you get a new roll and loaded to the core without a bunch of crinkling and sticking to itself? We've tried taping the liner to the core, and pulling the laminate down but we can't get the liner to stick to the core (with tape). Help!!

Someone might have a better way but tape a round of packing to the core and then turn it around so the sticky side is up. Then zigzag that to the other end of the core and turn around again to attach to the core. Now you have a sticky core.

The liner is waxed so tape / laminate won't stick to it. If you're trying to take it that way... it'll never work.

Use double sided tape, and if you dont have any... Take a really long piece of tape and wind it onto itself to make double sided tape.
