Application

Thermoplastic Line Marking Tape should only be applied by using the correct Thermoplastic Gas Torch (please see related products) to melt the tape on to the substrate. It is not possible for this product to be applied with a plumbers type gas torch. After a few minutes the area is ready to return to service. Due to the nature of application, Thermoplastic Line Marking Tape can be applied all year round, even in cold conditions. When the temperature is below 10°C, it is advissed to warm the tarmac surface with the gas torch before applying the thermoplastic tape. Also if the surface is wet, dry with the gas torch before application.

Centrecoat Thermoplastic lead free Line Marking Tape has a curing time of 10 minutes resulting in a fast return to service. Preformed thermoplastic must be applied at between 190- 200°C to ensure good adhesion. Thermoplastic lines must be stored at a minimum of 10°C or they become brittle. DO NOT APPLY OVER EXISTING PAINTED LINES.

Apply with the glass beads facing upwards.
