We recommend using the following procedure and auxiliary tools to properly apply the insulating tape consisting of a polymer bitumen-based adhesive mixture to the roof:
Required materials and tools
- Insulating tape: A tape consisting of a butyl-based adhesive compound with an optional top layer.
- Cleaning agent: Alcohol-based cleaner or special surface preparation to remove oil, dirt, and rust.
- Soft cloth or sponge: For cleaning the surface. Cutting tool: Knife or scissors to cut the tape to size.
- Pressing tool: A stiff roller or special press to remove air bubbles after the tape is applied.
- Heat source (optional): Heat gun to increase the adhesion of the tape in cold weather.
- Safety gloves and goggles: To ensure safety.
Application rules
1. Surface Preparation
- Cleaning: The surface to which the tape will be attached must be completely dry, free from dust, oil and dirt. If there is rust, it must be removed from the surface.
Recommendation: Wipe the surface with an alcohol-based cleaner and dry with a soft cloth.
- Surface Temperature: The tape adheres best at temperatures between +10°C and +45°C. It is necessary to bond the surface with a heat gun at -5°C to +10°C (in cold environments).
2. Ribbon Preparation
- Measurement and Cutting: Determine the size of the tape according to the dimensions of the area to be glued. Cut the tape to the required size with a cutting tool.
- Removing the Protective Film: The PE film underneath must be gradually removed before the tape is glued.
3. Tape Bonding
- Application Procedure: The tape is applied directly to the surface after removing the protective film. The tape is placed slowly and with pressure so that wrinkles and air bubbles do not form on the surface. Reinforce the overlaps of the tapes (approximately 3-5 cm) with a stiff roller.
- Pressing: After the tape is applied, apply pressure to the entire surface with a stiff roller or a special press. This will ensure full adhesion and sealing of the tape.
4. Post-Application Inspection
- Leakage Test: After gluing is complete, check the tightness and adhesion of the tape. If there are areas of poor adhesion, apply additional pressure or heat.
Additional Recommendations
- If the tape is applied in conditions of high temperature changes and constant humidity, it should be inspected regularly to check the adhesive strength.
- Use protective gloves and goggles when applying the tape.
By following these rules, you can ensure long-lasting insulation by properly applying the insulation tape to the roof.
