Troubleshooting

Tape not adhering well

Ensure the surface is clean and dry. Apply with sufficient tension, especially on the final wrap. Avoid applying in extremely cold temperatures.

Poor flexibility in cold weather

Store the tape in a warmer environment before use. Apply with gentle stretching to prevent cracking.

Adhesive residue left after removal

While designed for secure insulation, some residue may occur. Use a mild adhesive remover specifically designed for tape residue, testing in an inconspicuous area first.

Tape appears to be degrading prematurely

Check for prolonged exposure to UV light or harsh chemicals not listed in the product's resistance profile. Ensure the tape was applied correctly with proper overlap.
