An new version of
tesa 4848 PV0
surface protection tape is now available.
tesa 4848 PV1 has a waterbased acrylic adhesive and polyethylene backing which is now transparent compared to the previous red clour of PV0 and importantly features improved UV resistance of up to 4 weeks - especially on glass. In fact, whereas
tesa 4848 PV0 had the risk of some adhesive residue on glass after 72 hours (using an Atlas Suntest
® weatherometer),
tesa 4848 PV1 showed no residues after 250 hours. Additionally,
tesa 4848 PV1 is easy to unwind, can be demasked without residues, is highly conformable, hand tearable and resistant to chemcials, physical stress and moisture.
