Process
Apply tape by machine or by hand over the nailing fin insertion point on top of the aluminum or wood frame (where water
and moisture are most likely to collect). For added assurance, the three remaining sides may be taped. If die cuts are used to
bridge the corners, apply them after the moisture barrier tape.
