Pavement Marking Tape Installation Pictures

Our pavement marking tape is designed to be applied to Portland concrete cement, asphalt and other smooth surfaces. It can be removed but is designed to be permanent. The surface must be clean and free of oils, dirt, gravel, flaking paint, etc.. Applying to unstable surfaces is not recommended.

1. Thoroughly sweep loose particles and dust from area where tape is to be applied. Compressed air is recommended for caked , dirty or flaky areas.

2. For better adhesion, an application primer or contact type cement can be used but is not required.

3. The temperature should be no less than 50 degrees before and after tape application. Allow at least 48 hours after rainfall for the sun to dry pavement. Always allow sun to dry morning dew. Application is not recommended during overcast, moist and humid atmospheric conditions.

4. To apply tape mark guidelines where tape is to be applied. Roll tape out along the guidelines manually or using a tape applicator. Butt splice only. Do not overlap seams. Score tape every 30-40 feet to allow for expansion.

5. Apply a minimum of 200 lbs of pressure with a roller or use a car tire. Be careful not to twist the tape.

6. Area is now ready for traffic. Tape adhesive will cure in 48 hours.

Store unused tape in a cool, dry place. Tape should be used within a year of purchase.

NOTE - The actual performance of our standard and heavy duty traffic tapes will be dependent upon surface and atmospheric conditions at the time of the application, application method, traffic, and exposure conditions. The user should test for conformance to his requirements before making large scale applications. Abrasion or heavy wear may substantially reduce the life of the product.
