Features
• Designed for industrial use where a good paint line is desired and drying
conditions range from air dry to an oven bake.
• Embodies all the features that are desirable of a paint masking tape.
• Has excellent conformability and easy tear.
• Has been laboratory tested on painted steel panels and found to remove cleanly
at bake temperatures up to 325°F (163°C) for 30 minutes. The actual temperature
and time performance may be higher or lower for a given application. Clean
removal can vary dependent on surface type, processing conditions such as
multiple bakes, type of paint involved as well as the temperature of the surface at
removal. We recommend testing the product under your conditions to determine
if it meets your needs.
• Has a high degree of holding to most surfaces.
• The unique balance of adhesive and backing provides a high degree of resistance
to tearing or slivering on removal.
• Should not be subjected to outdoor exposure or prolonged periods of sunlight as
tape may become difficult to remove.
