Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup & Application:
Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, oils, or other contaminants before application. For best adhesion, apply the tape at temperatures within a moderate range (avoiding extreme cold or heat outside its specified resistance). Carefully peel off the backing paper, applying firm, even pressure as you lay the tape down to ensure full contact and eliminate air bubbles. Overlap seams by at least 50mm for a continuous seal.
Compatibility:
This tape is designed for use with:
- DuPont™ AirGuard® membranes
- UPVC window & door frames
- Plastic pipework
- Wiring
- Timber substrates
- Metal frames and components
It adheres well to both smooth and rough surfaces. Always test adhesion on a small, inconspicuous area if unsure about substrate compatibility.
Care:
Once applied, the tape requires no ongoing care. Its durable material is designed for the lifetime of the building envelope. Avoid exposing the tape to temperatures outside its specified resistance range (-40°C to +70°C) during storage or application, as this can compromise adhesion and performance.
