Features • While vinyl tapes resist most common solvents, care should be taken to avoid
ketones, chlorinated hydrocarbons and esters found in lacquers, thinners,
degreasers, paint strippers, etc., which may cause the backing to swell or curl.
• Pigmented vinyl backing to conform to many irregular surfaces.
• Rubber adhesive for good instant adhesion.
Application Techniques
• Best results are attained when applied to a clean, dry surface at temperatures
between 60° to 80°F (16° to 27°C).
