Professional-grade fine line masking tape with high adhesion and low profile design for crisp paint lines. Heat resistant up to 250°F, solvent resistant, and ideal for automotive, aerospace, and specialty vehicle paint masking 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 high instant adhesion necessary for critical, large-scale paint applications. The tape is ideal for painting long straight lines and smooth sweeping curves where crisp, sharp paint lines are desired, making it perfect for specialty vehicle, automotive, rail, marine, and aerospace paint jobs.
The tape's low profile and high adhesion properties provide excellent color line separation, preventing soak-in and edge-lifting. The polypropylene backing is stiffer than vinyl fine line tapes while conforming easily around corners. Scotch® Fine Line Tape 218 features good moisture and solvent resistance, resisting heat in bake cycles that reach 250°F/121°C for up to 30 minutes. This makes it an excellent choice for custom, two-tone, and multiple color applications, as well as layout tape for high-value, multi-color and custom painted graphics.
Each case contains 24 rolls, with each roll measuring 1.5 inches in width and 60 yards in length with a 5 mil thickness. The tape is repositionable, allowing for adjustments during application, and provides clean removal without leaving residue. This industrial-grade masking tape is suitable for use on glass, metal, PVC, painted surfaces, plastic, and rubber substrates.
