    Each colour comes as one continuous length, plus full 50m rolls for bigger orders, so every run can be cut from a single piece.

    How this was worked out

    This calculator works out how much tape to buy. It assumes every line is marked along its full length, so it won't come up short. Where the tape goes and which marking your vehicle needs are set by UN Regulation 48 (paragraph 6.21), so check with your bodybuilder or testing station before fitting.
