2. Stick to the head of the frame
Remove the single release film strip on the printed side, position the tape on the head of the frame and then gradually stick in place. The printed side of the tape must be facing the window (upwards) here. Rub firmly using the PRESSFIX application tool to secure the adhesive bond.
NOTE: If tape application is started at the side of the window frame, ensure that the tape overlap is executed in a water-resistant manner!

3. Create corner folds
Allow an additional loop of CONTEGA SOLIDO EXO-D of about 2 cm (3/4”) in the corner area (length of the corner diagonal of the joint) and stick it in the form of a corner fold.

4. Stick the tape all around the window frame
Stick the tape to the side of the frame all around. When finished, cut the tape, allowing approx. 5 cm (2”) of an overlap. Remove the release film from the start of the tape that is already fastened in place in the overlap area, and stick the end of the tape in place. Ensure that there is uninterrupted windtightness when sticking the tape here.

6. Stick CONTEGA SOLIDO EXO-D onto the reveal and rub to secure
Remove the release film strip on the membrane side (unprinted side) and gradually stick the tape in place on the reveal. Leave slack for expansion so as to allow for relative motion between components. Rub firmly using the PRESSFIX application tool to secure the adhesive bond. Install the sub-sill (EXTOSEAL ENCORS).
