Product Information

Full details

The Black Jack Weatherproof Protection Self Adhesive Flashing Tape is designed for homeowners, roofers, and DIY enthusiasts who need a reliable, instant solution for sealing leaks and cracks in building materials. Its key benefit is the combination of an aluminium foil face and bitumen adhesive, which creates a durable, long-lasting, and waterproof barrier that is easy to apply by hand. However, users should note that surface preparation is critical to ensure proper adhesion, as the tape may struggle to bond on surfaces that are wet, dusty, or excessively cold.

FAQs

Can I paint over the aluminium foil face?

While the surface is generally meant to be left as is, it can be painted with most exterior-grade metal paints if required.

Does this tape work on damp surfaces?

No, it is essential that the surface is dry to ensure the bitumen adhesive forms a proper, long-lasting bond.

Can this be used for internal repairs?

Yes, it can be used internally; however, consider the aesthetic and the potential odor of the bitumen during the initial application period.

What tools do I need for installation?

You will need a pair of heavy-duty scissors or a utility knife to cut the tape and a firm roller or dry cloth to ensure good contact.

Is the tape UV resistant?

The aluminium foil face provides excellent resistance to UV rays, preventing degradation over time.

Troubleshooting

Tape is not sticking securely

Clean the surface thoroughly to remove dust or grease. Ensure the area is completely dry before application.

Tape is too stiff to apply in cold weather

Store the roll in a warm environment before use, or gently warm the tape with a heat gun to increase pliability.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Quick and simple manual application
  • Excellent weatherproofing capabilities
  • Durable aluminium construction
  • Provides a clean, lead-look appearance

Cons

  • Requires dry and clean surfaces for optimal adhesion
  • Not suitable for use in extreme cold without pre-warming
  • Once applied, the strong adhesive makes repositioning very difficult

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before applying the tape, ensure the substrate is structurally sound, clean, and free from any loose debris, moss, or standing water. If the surface is porous, such as bare brick or concrete, applying a compatible primer can significantly improve the bond strength. To apply, peel back the protective liner from the adhesive side, place the tape firmly over the area, and use a roller or a dry cloth to apply even pressure across the entire surface, paying special attention to the edges to ensure they are fully bonded. The tape is compatible with most common building materials like concrete, brickwork, metal, and slate, but it should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the bitumen adhesive.
