wordmouk 10m Clear Window Draught Sealing Film Tape
Wide tape is useful, but it is not always the right tool. Along the narrow edge of a sash or around a small frame, 5cm of clear tape looks clumsy and overlaps the glass. This 3cm roll is slimmer and easier to place neatly, which is why it suits small windows, skylights and tidy finishes.
The tape is made from acrylic with a strong adhesive on the back, and it is described as weatherproof. It is 10 metres long, enough for several windows. The idea is to block the movement of air through hairline gaps around the frame, which makes a room feel more comfortable in winter.
To use it, clean the surface well, measure the gap length, trim the tape and press it on firmly. A clean, dry, warm surface helps the adhesive grip. In a spring clean-up you can peel the tape off and clean any residue with a little white spirit.
