What is the recommended use for Tautflex?

Although testing has demonstrated that TautFlex has excellent adhesion to various flexible and rigid surfaces, it is suggested that all materials be tested for adhesion before use. For preparing and using the Tautflex vinyl paint, do the following:

  • For preparation, the surface for painting should be clean and devoid of dirt, grease, and surface plasticiser. To remove grime, grease, and oil from the surface, use a detergent (such as Dissol).
  • To dull the surface of a glossy surface, lightly rub it with a grey Scotch-Brite pad. Finally, use Vipond's Prep Vinyl or methylated spirits to clean.
  • TautFlex is a paint with a low viscosity that can be applied with a brush, roller or spray. Before using, thoroughly stir the paint.
  • The gloss-finish paint will be surface dry in 20 minutes under typical drying circumstances (above 15°C and low humidity) and can be recoated after one hour (min). To slow drying in extremely hot temperatures, use Vipond's water-based acrylic retarder.
