The crepe paper backing of the 3M General Purpose Masking Tape 234 tears easily and offers moderate conformability around corners and over irregular surfaces. The rubber adhesive provides instant sticking power and strong holding power, resisting lifting and curling. When it's time to remove the tape, it does so cleanly and easily from the surface. This tape bonds well to paper, metal, wood, and painted surfaces, ensuring reliable holding power. Under normal operating conditions, it can be removed in one piece and is resistant to slivering.
Why Masking Tape?Masking tape was specifically developed to protect surrounding surfaces from overspray, create clean paint lines, and be easily and cleanly removed when the job is done. Masking tapes adhere well, resisting solvents or water from the paint, and are strong enough to hang plastic sheeting. They can be applied to curved and irregular surfaces without lifting or curling. The crepe paper backing tears easily by hand, making it convenient to use. Different masking tapes are designed for different applications and should be removed within their specified time range. It is important to note that a very thin or poorly manufactured tape may splinter or shred when coming off the roll or being removed after use. Masking tape is a basic toolbox or supply room item in various industries such as construction, warehousing, military, marine, shipping, and retail.
