Protecto-Tak Application
Shake can before using. Turn spray tip so arrow
points to dot on rim. Hold can 6" - 8" (152 - 203
mm) from surface to be sprayed and apply.
Clean oversprayed areas with a 3:1 isopropyl
alcohol to water ratio.
APPLICATION
Cut a piece of BT25XL in a length that can be
easily handled. Begin application by remov-
ing approximately 12" (305 mm) of the release
paper and center the tape over the area
being sealed. Firmly roll the BT25XL against the
surface and continue pulling off the release
paper while rolling the tape into place. BT25XL
must be rolled to ensure 100% surface contact
between the BT25XL adhesive and the sub-
strate. This will minimize the trapping of air
beneath the tape.
Do not stretch BT25XL. Lap building wrap
material 4" (102 mm) over BT25XL and seal the
building wrap to BT25XL.
