When applying this tape the surfaces to be bonded should be: dry,
dust and grease free and thoroughly clean. Avoid touching the exposed
adhesive surface of the tape as this impairs its performance. The ideal
cleaning method should incorporate use of a: solvent, such as: Isopropyl
alcohol. To attain the optimum bond strength sufficient pressure should be
applied to the tape to ensure a good adhesive "wet out" on the
substrates. This tape is a pressure-sensitive adhesive, and the best
results are achieved with maximum surface contact under pressure. The bond strength will reach its optimum strength after 24 hours.Polyester Tapes are all made with strong polyester backing and silicone
adhesive, allowing them to be used in applications requiring high
temperatures or adhesion to silicone treated surfaces. This tape family
offers a range of backing thickness to accommodate application needs
from thin tape for splicing to a thicker, stronger tape from pulling
through flashing or multiple layers.
