- Easy to apply, predictable results.
- Smooth application to corners and curves.
- Reduces working time.
Technical Application & Instructions:
1. Scuff the surface of the panel with surface conditioning pads to remove any excess seal material from the seamed part of the surface.
Use a blow gun to remove the dust and wipe off the surface with cleaning material or solvent. Surface should be clean and dry before spraying the primer.
Apply the sealing tape primer evenly according to the directions until the surface appears glossy. It is essential to use the Meguro sealing tape primer to ensure secure bonding of the tape to the panel as well as to prevent rust.
Air dry for approximately 5 minutes at 20ºC. Wait until the primer has dried and the surface is no longer sticky.
Start at a corner and apply the tape in one direction. Peel off the film and, using your finger apply pressure at the beginning of the tape. Remove the film gradually as when the adhesive is dirty, it will lose contact with the panel. Never pull or stretch the tape. Work at a temperature of approximately 10ºC to 20ºC. The tape may lose its adhesive properties at lower temperatures. Warming the tape can improve contact. Ensure firm contact of the tape on the panel at the end of the tape as it can easily lift at the end. Leave a piece of the corner open to apply putty. Cut the tape with a pair of scissors.
Carefully check the tape for proper contact, especially at the ends. Use the roller to pressurize the tape. Move the roller in the opposite direction to how you applied the tape. Use light pressure to remove air from the tape and then repeat using more pressure to ensure firm contact between the tape and the panel.
Inspect both ends of the tape. Wipe off any dirt on the tape.
Use putty according the specified directions on corners, joints, drains and spot welds.
Carefully check the tape for lifting, separation, gaps between tape and panel.
Paint.
Dry the panel. Do not use temperatures exceeding 70ºC if using infra-red heaters to dry. Leave at air temperature for 15 minutes before using the heater
