It comes as A & B polarity so obviously you need to buy both. <br /><br /><br />The perspex is 3mm clear cast Altaglas. Cut to size & usually with free delivery from The Robert Horne group 0161 872 8585<br /><br />Their sales team are very helpful.Yvonnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00706326534368548443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852247525179911150.post-32675271324794594972016-09-20T09:05:24.466+01:002016-09-20T09:05:24.466+01:00hello,

Fit A or B to the acrylic sheet via the self adhesive. Attach the other tape to the one already fitted, peel the backing paper exposing the adhesive and offer the panel up to a pre-marked window frame and press firmly down, carefully separate the two magnetic components while the adhesive has time to do its job. The A or B , whichever is fitted to the window frame is there summer and winter.<br />Hope that makes sense<br />Yvonnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00706326534368548443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852247525179911150.post-30892716036581618202015-10-01T17:48:10.715+01:002015-10-01T17:48:10.715+01:00Hi Susan, Its single sided magnetic tape A and B w...Hi Susan, Its single sided magnetic tape A and B with adhesive on the other side.

We have used the "special" film that you hairdry to the window frames, but last year the one we bought didn't stay taut and looked a bit messy. Can I ask you, does it have to be double-sided magnetic tape? When you remove the acrylic sheets in the year, do you leave the tape on around the windows to be re-used? Sorry, it's just that we are thinking of doing this for our windows soon. When you fitted the tape, did you fit it to the window frame first and then hold the acrylic over the tape so you could see where to fit it? I probably sound a bit dippy here, but I would want to get it just right. Thanks so much and I hope you don't mind all the questions?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17309475283686982973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852247525179911150.post-16429682026497754472015-07-16T13:12:01.817+01:002015-07-16T13:12:01.817+01:00It's a very interesting post with useful infor...It's a very interesting post with useful information.
