Liquid Tape is an air dry synthetic rubber coating that can be easily brushed on and exhibits excellent moisture, acid, alkaline, abrasion and dielectric resistance. It can be used on bare parts of Electric cable joints , where the regular insulation tape is not effective. Liquid Tape can be used to insulate, protect and color code.
Liquid Tape Types
Liquid Tape Brush type

Liquid Tape is available in red, black, green, and white.
It will not crack, peel, or harden and remains flexible even under extreme conditions.
Liquid Tape Spray type

Applications of Liquid Tape
Liquid Tape can be used in many applications including electrical connections for boats, trailers, RV’s, trucks, automobiles, timers, pool electrical, bilge pumps, sprinkler pumps, instruments, computers, circuit boards, switches, and will stop terminal screws from vibrating loose.
Use Liquid Tape to insulate, protect and color code.

How to use liquid electrical tape
Surface Preparation for applying liquid tape
- Wires, terminals, or all other surfaces must be clean, dry, and free of all oils, grease, wax and loose rust.
- Mix Well Before Use & Use Adequate Ventilation
- Stir gently with brush applicator cap to avoid producing bubbles before each use. Apply wet overlapping coats.
- Allow 10 – 20 minutes dry time (dry to the touch) before applying additional coats to desired thickness.
- A minimum of 2 – 3 coats are recommended for best results. Allow 24 hours for fully cure.
Caution
- Turn off power before starting electrical work and follow your local electrical codes.
- Minimum of 2 coats required (5+ mils) to assure good dielectric protection.
- Allow 4 hours dry time per coat before use. Allow overnight drying whenever possible and avoid excessive air movement, heat, or humidity.
- Always use proper ventilation and protection.
