Premium industrial masking tape with synthetic rubber adhesive for high-temperature paint applications up to 325°F, featuring clean removal and heavy-duty crepe paper backing for superior performance in automotive and specialty vehicle painting.
3M™ High Performance Masking Tape 2693 is a premium industrial-grade masking tape specifically engineered for demanding paint masking applications in the transportation industry. Featuring a heavy-duty mini-crepe paper backing with synthetic rubber adhesive, this tape delivers exceptional holding power while maintaining clean removal properties. The tape is formulated to perform excellently with high-solid paints and urethane clear coats, making it ideal for specialty vehicle, automotive, rail, marine, and aerospace paint jobs including two-tone color applications on trucks, buses, trailers, trains, fire trucks, ambulances, and airplanes.
The advanced synthetic rubber adhesive provides superior adhesion and heat resistance, allowing the tape to withstand bake temperatures up to 325°F (163°C) for 30 minutes without adhesive transfer. The balanced roll construction ensures controlled unwind for fast, easy, and precise dispensing, while the heavy-duty crepe paper backing conforms to curved and irregular surfaces without slivering. Users benefit from one-piece removal and clean peeling from most surfaces, whether applied in warm or cold conditions.
Each case contains 24 rolls of tape, with each roll measuring 36mm wide by 55 meters long with a 7.9 mil thickness. This product is manufactured to industrial standards and is intended exclusively for occupational and industrial use by trained professionals. The tape's superior performance characteristics make it the preferred choice for high-temperature paint masking processes and holding masking film and paper in place during complex multi-stage painting operations.
