Premium green polypropylene fine line masking tape with silicone adhesive for precision gel coat applications on fiberglass surfaces. Delivers sharp color separation, excellent chemical resistance, and reliable adhesion to mold-release surfaces in marine and composite manufacturing.
Scotch® Fine Line Masking Tape 265 is a premium high-performance polypropylene plastic tape engineered specifically for precision gel coat masking applications on fiberglass surfaces. This green-colored tape features a unique low-profile design combined with exceptional adhesion to mold-release surfaces, making it ideal for multi-color gel coated fiberglass boat hulls, decks, and specialty marine applications. The tape's polypropylene backing is significantly stiffer than traditional vinyl fine line tapes while maintaining excellent conformability around corners and edges, ensuring sharp, clean color separation without edge-lifting or soak-in.
The tape utilizes a pressure-sensitive silicone/rubber adhesive formulation that delivers immediate high instant adhesion necessary for critical, large-scale paint and gel coat applications. Its superior gel coat chemical resistance ensures reliable performance in demanding industrial environments. The silicone adhesive sticks immediately upon application and holds reliably throughout the masking process, while remaining resistant to most solvents and moisture. This specialized formulation has proven itself ideal for in-mold color masking with gel coats on fiberglass surfaces of boat hulls, decks, and other composite structures.
Scotch® Fine Line Masking Tape 265 is available in convenient 72-roll cases, with each roll measuring 0.5 inches wide by 60 yards long with a 5.1 mil thickness. The tape provides excellent gel coat color separation for in-mold fine line masking and offers good adhesion to molds treated with semi-permanent high-slip mold releases. As a recognized pioneer in industrial tapes and adhesives, 3M has engineered this product to meet the highest standards of the composites and marine manufacturing industries. For industrial and occupational use only.
