### Preparation.

To properly apply 8mm 100mm width visco-elastic cold applied tape, you will need to prepare the surface before beginning the application process. Make sure the surface is clean, dry, and free of any dirt, dust, or debris. Additionally, ensure that the surface is smooth and free of any sharp edges or rough patches that could potentially damage the tape.

### Application.

1. Begin by unwinding the visco-elastic cold applied tape from the roll, ensuring that it is positioned correctly for application.

2. Place one end of the tape on the desired starting point of the surface, making sure to firmly press it down to ensure proper adhesion.

3. Slowly unroll the tape along the length of the surface, applying even pressure to ensure that it adheres properly.

4. As you unroll the tape, use a roller or similar tool to firmly press it down onto the surface, ensuring that it conforms to any contours or irregularities.

5. Continue unrolling and pressing the tape down until you have covered the entire surface, ensuring that there are no gaps or overlaps in the application.

6. Once the tape is fully applied, use a heat gun or similar tool to activate the visco-elastic properties of the tape, ensuring a strong and secure bond to the surface.

7. Allow the tape to cure according to the manufacturer's instructions, ensuring that it has fully adhered before exposing it to any harsh conditions or elements.

### Maintenance.

To ensure the longevity and effectiveness of the visco-elastic cold applied tape, it is important to regularly inspect the application for any signs of damage or wear. If any damage is found, make necessary repairs or replacements to maintain the integrity of the tape.

Properly applying 8mm 100mm width visco-elastic cold applied tape is essential for ensuring a strong and durable bond to the surface. By following these step-by-step instructions and properly maintaining the application, you can help maximize the effectiveness and longevity of the tape.
