3M Scotch Performance Masking Tape

Preparation: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from any dust or contaminants. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and a mask.

Application: Shake the tape roll gently to ensure it is ready for use. Apply the tape to the desired area, ensuring it conforms to the vehicle's curves and contours. Press the tape down firmly to ensure proper adhesion, especially around edges and corners.

Painting:

Perform your painting job as required, ensuring the tape stays in place throughout the process.

The tape can withstand temperatures up to 250ºF (121ºC) for up to 30 minutes, making it ideal for baking cycles.

Removal: Allow the paint to dry according to the manufacturer's instructions. Remove the tape slowly and at an angle to avoid lifting the paint. Ensure clean removal without slivering, which reduces the need for extra buffing or rework.

Post-Use: Dispose of used tape and backing materials according to local regulations. Store unused tape in a cool, dry place to maintain its effectiveness for future use.

Flexible Backing: Conforms easily around complex vehicle contours without breaking, allowing for fast application and eliminating the need for additional tape.

Patented Adhesive: Bonds instantly to various surfaces including EPDM, resists water and chemicals, and prevents bleed-through, edge curl, or lifting.

High Temperature Resistance: Withstands temperatures up to 250ºF (121ºC) for up to 30 minutes, making it suitable for longer baking cycles.

Clean Removal: Removes cleanly without slivering, reducing labor costs and the need for extra buffing or rework.

Low-Profile Tape: Prevents high edges, ensuring a smooth finish.

Special Backsize Treatment: Provides superior control during unwinding, reducing wrinkling and paint blow-by.

Maximized Material Usage: More usable tape per roll and no need for a starting tab, providing about 60 more feet of usable tape per case.
