What is Masking Tape?

Masking tape was specifically developed to protect surrounding surfaces from overspray, create clean paint lines, and allow for easy and clean removal once the painting process is complete. 3M's masking tapes are known for their strong adhesion, resistance to solvents and water, and ability to hang plastic sheeting. They can conform to curved and irregular surfaces, thanks to their crepe paper backing. Additionally, these tapes can be torn by hand, eliminating the need for tools during application.

When choosing a masking tape, it is important to consider the surfaces it will stick to and the interval over which it will remove cleanly. Thin or poorly manufactured tapes may splinter or shred, both during application and removal. Some masking tapes, including those from 3M, have the tensile strength required for light commercial and industrial applications such as bundling, labeling, sealing, temporary repairs, lane marking, splicing, and surface protection. With a wide range of options available, from wide to narrow, single rolls to bulk, 3M offers masking tapes in various colors and formulations to meet different general and specific applications. Whether it's for construction, warehousing, military, marine, shipping, automotive aftermarket, general manufacturing, or retail industries, a roll of masking tape is an essential item in any toolbox or supply room.
