Product Information

Full details

Black Jack Weatherproof Protection Self Adhesive Flashing Tape is designed for homeowners, contractors, and DIY enthusiasts looking to create durable, waterproof seals on roofs, chimney stacks, and gutters. Its primary strength lies in its easy application process and high-quality aluminum foil backing that ensures a long-lasting, lead-look finish; however, users should note that the bitumen-based adhesive requires a clean, dry surface for optimal, permanent bonding.

FAQs

Can I paint over the flashing tape?

Yes, the aluminum surface is generally compatible with most exterior paints, though it is recommended to test a small area first.

Is this tape suitable for internal use?

It is primarily designed for external weatherproofing, but can be used internally if proper ventilation is provided and the bitumen odor is not a concern.

What is the width of the tape?

This specific variant is 300mm wide.

Can I use this on plastic guttering?

Yes, it adheres well to most plastics, provided the surface is cleaned thoroughly with a degreaser first.

Does the tape become brittle over time?

No, the high-quality aluminum foil and bitumen rubber combination is designed to remain flexible and durable throughout varying weather conditions.

How long should I wait after applying before it is waterproof?

The adhesive provides an instant seal upon application, meaning it is waterproof as soon as it is firmly pressed into place.

Troubleshooting

Tape failing to adhere to the surface

Ensure the surface is completely dry and free from dust or grease. Apply a primer if the substrate is highly porous.

Air bubbles trapped under the tape

Use a heavy-duty roller or firm hand pressure starting from the center of the tape and pushing outward to the edges.

Tape peeling at the edges

Check that the edges were pressed down firmly during installation and ensure no moisture was present under the tape during application.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Simple hand-press installation
  • Provides a long-lasting waterproof seal
  • Aesthetically pleasing lead-look finish
  • High-quality weather-resistant aluminum foil

Cons

  • Requires a clean, dry surface for effective adhesion
  • Adhesive is permanent and difficult to reposition once set
  • Should not be applied in sub-zero temperatures

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure maximum performance, the application surface must be clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or loose debris. For porous surfaces such as concrete or brickwork, applying a suitable primer is recommended to enhance the bond strength of the bitumen adhesive. During installation, simply peel back the protective release liner and press the tape firmly onto the surface using a roller or hand pressure, working from the center outward to eliminate air bubbles. Once applied, the tape requires no ongoing maintenance. Store the roll in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the adhesive for future use.
