High-performance polypropylene fine line masking tape with rubber adhesive for crisp paint lines, solvent and moisture resistant, heat resistant to 250°F for 30 minutes, ideal for automotive and specialty vehicle painting applications.
Scotch® Fine Line Tape 218 is a high-performance polypropylene plastic tape specifically engineered for precision paint masking applications. This professional-grade tape features a natural rubber pressure adhesive that delivers exceptional instant adhesion necessary for critical, large-scale paint applications. The tape's low profile and high adhesion characteristics provide excellent color line separation, making it ideal for painting long straight lines and sweeping curves where crisp, sharp paint lines are essential.
The tape is particularly suited for specialty vehicle, automotive, rail, marine, and aerospace paint jobs. Its polypropylene backing is stiffer than vinyl fine line tapes while still conforming easily around corners. Scotch® Fine Line Tape 218 demonstrates excellent moisture and solvent resistance, and it resists heat in bake cycles reaching 250°F/121°C for up to 30 minutes. This tape is commonly used as a layout tape for high-value multi-color and custom painted graphics applications.
Each case contains 144 rolls organized in 12-roll cartons, making it convenient for both small projects and large-scale industrial operations. The tape's versatility, combined with its superior performance characteristics, has made it a trusted choice among professional painters and manufacturers worldwide. This product is intended for industrial and occupational use only and is not suitable for consumer applications.
