PRODUCT FAQ

  1. How long does the tape last on a car?

    The longevity of 3M™ Automotive Refinish Masking Tape, 06656, will depend on the environment it is used in and the time it is left on. However, it has great adhesive strength for up to two weeks and removes cleanly from surfaces.

  2. Can this tape withstand high temperatures or humidity?

    Yes, this tape can hold up to 250ºF (121ºC) temperatures and resist paint bleed-throughs due to its advanced acrylic adhesive formula. And yes again! It resists moisture saturation as well!

  3. Is this product compatible with any kind of paint of polishing products?

    Absolutely! This masking tape works perfectly with all automotive painting systems including waterborne paints and provides excellent adhesion even when buffing out soft colors.

  4. Will I be able to see clearly through the three layers while applying color coats after taping parts together?

    Certainly! Our proprietary design consists of four layers that consist of high-quality crepe backing paper that keeps over-spray off vehicle surfaces while trapping dust particles under its textured surface—excellent visibility during spray painting guaranteed!

3M™ Automotive Refinish Masking Tape 388N is a specialized yellow crepe-paper tape that is ideal for use in the collision repair industry. This tape is designed to be used during critical paint masking processes. It features a rubber-based adhesive and flexible crepe-paper construction that provides excellent conformability and adhesion.

The yellow tape is resistant to moisture, solvents, and outdoor exposure. It leaves clean paint lines without any buildup. The crepe-paper backing on 3M™ Automotive Refinish Masking Tape 388N offers good conformability, which allows you to stretch and manipulate the tape to fit curves and contours without tearing. The thin and flexible backing heightens the ability of the tape to conform and produce sharp, clean paint lines.

The proprietary rubber-based adhesive delivers instant adhesion to a variety of automotive substrates, including moldings, plastic, glass, metal, rubber, and painted surfaces. This tape is specially treated for solvent and moisture resistance, which minimizes bleed through. Given its ability to stick right away, 388N allows for fast and efficient application.

This tape can resist temperatures up to 250°F (121°C) for up to 30 minutes. Once you're done painting, the tape removes cleanly and easily, in one piece — leaving behind no adhesive residue. 3M™ Automotive Refinish Masking Tape helps create smooth and precise paint jobs.
