Signage:The clear, double-sided gel tape ensures the finish of your glass or clear plastic sign remains pristine, even when illuminated. Faced with different materials and expansion rates, the visco elastic formulation keeps the bond strong.
Other:Universal application for wherever performance critical, near invisible bonding is essential.
Why Clear Acrylic Gel Tape?
Water clear for a near invisible bond
Incredibly high bond strength delivers durability and longevity
Withstands:Interior or exterior performance
Extremes of temperature
High forces applied to the bond
Water
Most solvents and chemicals
Differential expansion and contraction
Interior or exterior performance
High tack and good initial handling strength for improved production speeds and aesthetics
How to apply Clear Acrylic Gel Tape
Clean surface with Surface Cleaner.
Prime the surface. Independent tests at Loughborough University show that using the correct primer can increase final bond strength by up to 50%.
Remove the red filmic liner. Align the parts to be bonded.
With firm pressure, apply Clear Acrylic Gel Tape to one of the surfaces to be bonded. Using a roller will allow the double sided acrylic tape to wet out and reach ultimate bond strength more quickly.
Apply firm pressure to the bond with the roller.
Ultimate bond strength will be achieved in 72 hours.
