How to use
Run this single-sided tape over the joint between two marley rolls to seal the seam and hold the floor in place for temporary or touring installs.
-
Position the rolls
Lay your two marley rolls so their edges meet in a tight, even seam with no gap and no overlap.
Tip · Pick a tape color that matches your floor, or use clear if you want the seam to disappear.
-
Clean and dry the surface
Wipe the seam and the area on either side so the tape goes down on a clean, dust-free surface and grips well.
-
Apply the tape over the seam
Center the 2 inch tape along the joint, adhesive side down, and press it in place as you unroll so it covers the seam evenly.
-
Press down the full length
Smooth the tape from the center out to the edges along the whole run so there are no bubbles or lifted spots.
-
Lift away when you move on
When the install comes down, peel the tape up and it releases cleanly from the marley so the floor is ready to roll and store.
Common questions
What to know before you tape your seams.
Is this tape single-sided or double-sided?
It is single-sided. The adhesive is on one face only, so it lays over the top of the seam to join two rolls and hold the floor down. It is not a double-sided tape for bonding the underside of the marley to the subfloor.
Will it leave residue or damage my floor?
No. The adhesive is removable, so the tape lifts away cleanly when you take the install down. That makes it the standard choice for temporary, semi-permanent, and touring setups.
When should I use tape instead of heat-welding?
Use tape for any floor you plan to move, such as portable, rental, or touring installs. Heat-welding is a permanent, professional method for floors that stay put for good, while tape keeps your seams sealed and still lets you roll the floor back up.
What colors does it come in, and which should I pick?
It comes in black, white, gray, and clear. Match the tape to your marley color so the seam blends in, or choose clear when you want the joint to stay as discreet as possible.
How much tape is on a roll?
Each roll is 2 inches wide and 108 feet long. A typical seam run takes about 15 to 20 minutes for one person to tape.
Can I reuse the tape after I take the floor down?
We recommend fresh tape for each install. Once it has been pressed down and peeled up, the adhesive will not grip as reliably, so a new run gives you the cleanest, most secure seam.
