Q&A tips

A customer who has worked with us before asked: Will it be difficult to remove butyl tape after it has been applied to the ceramic tiles for half a year? Can it be removed by spraying a debonding agent and scraping with a shovel?

Answer: This depends on the quality of butyl contained in the butyl tape. If the quality of butyl is poor, it will not stick to you anytime and anywhere. But if the quality of butyl is good, for example, the butyl waterproof tape S2 put on during experiments in his office is still attached to the floor tiles and cannot be peeled off at all. The adhesive force is very strong.
