The new Trex RainEscape Clean-Edge Butyl Tape delivers all the proven performance of the original Trex RainEscape Butyl Tape with design enhancements that ensure a cleaner, more efficient application.
It is designed specifically for use with the Trex RainEscape system, which is installed above deck joists to divert water away and create dry, usable space underneath. The 4”-wide, self-adhesive, waterproof butyl tape is applied after the system’s troughs are installed to create a watertight seal between the trough overlaps and seals around screw penetrations from the deck boards. The tape also seals around deck screws to hold them in place while preventing rust and corrosion.
The tape features a butyl width of 3-3/4” on a 4” facer. This updated design leaves 1/8” of clean facing on either side of the butyl, effectively preventing any oozing and ensuring that tape adhesive does not get tracked onto the decking or into the house.
