High-Heat & Rain Care: Protecting Your VEP RFID Tag

Keep your VEP tag secure and scannable with these simple weather-proofing tips.

You’ve probably noticed your car feels like an oven after being parked under the Malaysian sun. That intense heat, combined with sudden tropical downpours, can be tough on your car—and especially on your VEP RFID tag's adhesive.

Your VEP RFID tag is secured with a strong adhesive, but it has its limits:

  • Extreme Heat: The midday sun can heat your windscreen to over 60°C, softening the adhesive and causing the edges of the tag to curl or peel.
  • Heavy Rain & Humidity: Moisture can seep under the edges of a weakened tag, further breaking down the glue and risking damage to the sensitive RFID chip.
