4、the tape by firmly pressing it onto the surface over the area containing the back side of the weld. Remove the tape within 90 +/- 30 seconds of application by pulling it off rapidly (not jerked) back upon itself at as close to an angle of 180 to the sample as possible. Evaluation 3. Report the perce
