Premium automotive masking tape with green crepe paper backing, specially formulated rubber adhesive, and superior clean removal. Resists UV, temperature, chemicals, and provides excellent performance for collision repair and paint applications.
3M™ Performance Green Masking Tape 233+ is a premium automotive masking tape engineered for collision repair, marine, and paint repair applications. This professional-grade tape features a distinctive green crepe paper backing that improves visibility for accurate edge alignment and provides exceptional conformability around complex vehicle contours. The tape bonds instantly with its specially formulated rubber adhesive, resisting water, chemicals, and UV exposure while remaining compatible with both water-based and solvent-based paint systems.
Designed specifically for auto body professionals, this masking tape delivers superior performance with clean removal and minimal slivering, reducing labor costs and preventing adhesive transfer or residue. The special backside release coating minimizes unwind force, preventing wrinkling and paint blow-by when used with paper apron maskers. Each roll contains approximately 60 feet more usable tape than lower-priced brands due to the coating on the inner core and elimination of the starter tab, providing exceptional value and efficiency for shop operations.
The tape resists temperatures up to 250°F (121°C) for up to 30 minutes, making it suitable for extended baking cycles. With decades of scientific development dating back to 3M's invention of masking tape in 1925, every layer—backing, primer, adhesive, and backing saturant—has been carefully engineered for superior performance in automotive aftermarket applications. This premium tape is acid-free, UV resistant, and maintains a low profile to prevent high edges that require additional buffing or rework.
