Clean Removal Performance
180° peel adhesion ≥ 6.8 N/25mm provides instant initial tack, preventing edge lifting under high-pressure spray coats.
The saturated crepe paper backing helps resist paint and solvent penetration, supporting clean separation lines during multi-tone painting and refinishing.
High longitudinal tensile strength enables continuous one-piece stripping after bake cycles without tearing or line stoppage.
Designed to minimize adhesive transfer and surface ghosting on compatible glass, aluminum, stainless steel, and cured OEM finishes, reducing the need for post-masking cleanup.
Paint Process Compatibility
Retains a stable bond on indoor job sites at ambient temperatures up to 60°C (140°F).
Withstands controlled exposure up to 140°C (284°F) for 60 minutes without significant adhesive transfer or backing failure under specified test conditions.
Resists backing breakdown with waterborne and solvent-based coatings, while synthetic rubber and cross-linked acrylic formulations prevent thermal embrittlement during repeated heat cycles.
Withstands direct exposure under infrared (IR) curing lamps without shrinking, lifting, or edge curling.
Heat-Curing Test
Test Substrate: Cured automotive paint panel used to evaluate masking performance under controlled heat exposure.
Tape Width: Standard masking tape width selected according to the test specification.
Temperature & Exposure: Maintains masking performance at 140°C (284°F) for 60 minutes under controlled heat-curing conditions.
Removal Result: Tape can be removed after the heat cycle without significant tearing or baked-on adhesive under the specified test conditions.
Adhesive Transfer: The tested surface is inspected after removal for adhesive residue, paint lifting, and visible surface changes to verify clean-removal performance.
Compliance
Complies fully with EU REACH (EC 1907/2006) and RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU heavy metal limits.
The hot-melt adhesive coating process does not use solvent-based adhesive systems, helping reduce solvent-related VOC emissions during production.
FSC-certified paper backing is available for customers with specific sustainability or supply-chain documentation requirements.
FAQ
Q: Can the tape withstand automotive paint-booth baking?
A: The specified grade can withstand controlled exposure up to 140°C (284°F) for 60 minutes under the defined test conditions. Actual performance depends on oven temperature, exposure time, substrate, and coating process.
Q: What is the minimum order quantity for jumbo rolls versus custom slit widths?
A: MOQ starts at 5 jumbo rolls for converters, or 1,000 rolls for custom-slit finished sizes.
Q: What is the lowest temperature at which this tape maintains adhesion?
A: The tape retains stable bond strength down to -5°C (23°F), making it suitable for early-morning or cold-season outdoor masking work.
Q: How long does sample production and delivery take before placing a bulk order?
A: Free samples are dispatched within 48 hours of request, while custom bulk orders require 12–15 days of production before shipment.
Q: Can buyers verify factory production capacity before ordering?
A: Yes, live video factory tours and on-site third-party inspections (SGS/BV) can be arranged before order confirmation.
Q: Does the tape leave residue after extended outdoor exposure, not just after IR curing?
A: Under continuous outdoor exposure, the tape remains cleanly removable for up to 5 days before adhesive residue risk increases.
