how long does it last i wonder?? and would one £25 roll do a whole caravan??

CARATAPE is a clear high quality monomeric calendered vinyl, and is ideal for all interior and most exterior applications. It features a 70-micron gloss face film together with a high-grade acrylic adhesive and the unique liner. The tape has good dimensional stability and an exterior life of a maximum of 2 years.

answering my question...2 years i would want more than that for £25!!

CARATAPE is great for water damage prevention on newer units where damp has not yet become visible.

Not really a great return for £25 , although if for £25 it saves water ingress then its a cheap temp fix till you get time to do a proper reseal

One look at my homepage and you'll spend £25 easily!
