Product Information
Full details
Soudal Butyband is an essential tool for professional contractors and dedicated DIYers seeking a durable, waterproof solution for exterior sealing and roof repairs. This self-adhesive butyl flashing tape provides a long-lasting, weather-resistant barrier on surfaces like steel, glass, and wood, effectively replacing the need for cumbersome traditional lead flashing. While it offers excellent adhesion and climate tolerance, users should ensure the substrate is perfectly clean and dry prior to application to guarantee a watertight bond.

FAQs
Can I use Soudal Butyband on wet surfaces?
No. The surface must be completely dry to achieve a secure, long-lasting bond.
Is this tape suitable for internal use?
Yes, it can be used indoors, though it is primarily designed for exterior waterproofing and weather protection.
What is the best way to cut the tape?
Use a sharp, utility knife or heavy-duty scissors. Be aware that the adhesive is very sticky; keep tools clean with a suitable solvent if needed.
Does the tape require heat for application?
No, Soudal Butyband is a cold-applied self-adhesive tape and does not require heat.
How long will the bond last?
When applied correctly to a prepared surface, the high-quality butyl rubber compound is designed for long-term weather-resistant service.
Can I paint over the tape?
The surface of the tape is not intended for decorative painting; it is best suited for functional sealing applications.
Troubleshooting
Tape is not adhering correctly to the surface
Ensure the surface is completely dry and free of oil or dust. If the surface is porous, apply a primer first.
Air bubbles trapped under the tape
Use a seam roller to firmly press from the center of the tape outwards to force air out and ensure full contact.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your Butyband, follow these preparation steps:
- Surface Preparation: Ensure the application surface is clean, dry, and free from grease, oil, dust, or loose particles. Use a degreaser if necessary.
- Priming: While usually not required on non-porous surfaces, porous substrates may benefit from a suitable primer to maximize adhesion.
- Application: Cut the tape to the desired length. Remove the backing paper and press the adhesive side firmly onto the substrate.
- Sealing: Use a hand roller or a cloth to apply pressure across the entire width of the tape, ensuring no air bubbles are trapped underneath.
- Maintenance: Periodically inspect the tape for mechanical damage. If the tape is damaged by debris, it can be patched by overlapping a new piece of Butyband, ensuring the surface is cleaned again before the new application.
