How Do I Apply The Tape? Watch our 'How To' video.

  1.  Ensure surface is clean and dry before applying tape.  Apply isopropyl alcohol cleaner, our QT923, using a clean, dry cloth.  Wipe across the surface in one direction removing all surface contaminants, e.g. dust, dirt and oil.  Let it flash off so it dries on the surface.
  2. Apply tape primer using a clean, dry cloth, our SX100.  Wipe a small amount in one direction across the surface.  Leave for a few minutes.
  3. Remove liner, taking care not to touch the tape too much.  Apply tape to surface with firm, even pressure using a pressure roller or the palm of your hand.
  4. Tape will increase in strength over a period of 48-72 hours while it fully bonds.

How Do I Remove The Tape?

To remove acrylic foam tape, use a hairdryer or something similar to soften the adhesive, then gently pull the tape off.  For stubborn residue, apply our QT044 Pure Citrus Cleaner, leave for a few minutes and then, using a scraper, gently remove any remaining residue.

How do I store the tape?

Correct storage of the tape is critical, ensuring it is placed in a plastic bag after use to avoid any contamination from dust and grease and kept in a dry, clean area.

Will sudden changes in temperature affect the tape?

Thermal expansion causes tape to expand or contract with temperature changes, affecting its length and thickness.

Therefore, fluctuations can cause the tape to expand or contract and if applied in the wrong setting it can cause the tape to fail.  It is important to take any sudden temperature variances into consideration, e.g. below air conditioning units, heaters etc.

Why has my tape failed?

  • The surface may be contaminated with dust, dirt or grease prior to application of tape.
  • Insufficient pressure was applied to the surface of the tape after application.
  • The tape/substrate was too cold – check application temperature.
  • Differential expansion – the 2 substrates expanded/contracted at different rates due to environmental factors e.g. temperature.
  • Not enough product added – insufficient coverage of tape used for the application, e.g. heavy loads/substrates.
  • Incorrect tape used for application.
