Product Information
Full details
Bostik Roll is designed for flooring contractors and installers who require a rapid, clean solution for securing skirting, capping strips, and carpet tiles without the mess of liquid glues. Its primary benefit is the instant grab adhesive system that requires zero curing time, allowing for immediate foot traffic upon installation; however, users should note that the high-tack nature of the tape requires precise initial placement, as repositioning can be difficult once bonded.

FAQs
Can Bostik Roll be used on damp concrete?
No, surfaces must be completely dry and clean for the adhesive to form a lasting bond.
Is this tape suitable for outdoor use?
Bostik Roll is primarily designed for interior flooring installations and is not recommended for external exposure.
Do I need to wait for the adhesive to cure?
No, one of the primary benefits of this system is the lack of curing time, allowing for immediate use.
What is the total length provided in the pack?
The pack contains 3 rolls, each 50 meters long, totaling 150 meters of tape.
Is it safe for use in schools?
Yes, because it is solvent-free and low-odor, it is an excellent choice for sensitive environments like schools and hospitals.
Can I remove the tape if I make a mistake?
Due to the instant grab nature of the adhesive, repositioning is very difficult once contact is made; it is best to align carefully before pressing down.
Troubleshooting
Tape failing to stick to the substrate
Ensure the surface is completely clean and free of dust or moisture; wipe with an appropriate solvent cleaner if necessary.
Difficulty in applying straight lines
Use a guide or chalk line to mark the desired installation path before applying the taped profile.
Adhesive lifting in high-humidity areas
Verify that the substrate is not damp or cold; ensure the temperature of the wall and tape is within recommended installation ranges.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure maximum bond strength, surfaces must be clean, dry, and free from dust, oil, or grease.
- Surface Prep: Clean the substrate thoroughly. If the surface is porous, consider a primer if recommended by the flooring manufacturer.
- Application: Apply the tape to the back of the profile or accessory. Ensure full contact by pressing firmly along the entire length of the tape.
- Bonding: Remove the release liner and position the accessory precisely, as the instant-grab adhesive will bond quickly upon pressure.
- Storage: Keep rolls in a cool, dry environment. Avoid storing in direct sunlight or areas where temperatures fluctuate excessively, as this may affect the adhesive performance over time.
