Q What should
I use to clean my hands after applying Sylglas Waterproofing Tape?
A Even though we
suggest that gloves are worn, if you opt not to wear gloves we would
recommend any proprietary hand cleanser.
Q I have recently
bought some carbon monoxide detectors but have found their
instructions a little confusing, please would you clarify the
detection process.
A The detector
works such that in the presence of carbon monoxide gas the sensitised spot in
the centre will darken & blacken drastically.
During the six-month life of the detectors they will discolour
slightly in the presence of cigarette smoke, aerosol sprays and cleaners
especially when used in a bathroom or exposed to other heat sources.
Q Where can I buy Sylglas?
A Your local high
street hardware store is the best place to try as they will often
order a product if they do not have it it stock. Please see our availability
page for further details.

Q Can Sylglas
tapes be overpainted?
A It is possible
to overpaint Sylglas Tapes, however, care should be taken as to what sort
of paint should be used on each product.
On our products with a lacquered aluminium foil finish an oil based
paint should be used, whereas with our petrolatum based products these
can be overpainted after it has formed a 'skin', 4-6 weeks depending on
condition, with an emulsion paint. See our guide below:
