High-performance polypropylene fine line masking tape with rubber adhesive for crisp paint lines, heat resistant to 250°F, ideal for automotive and aerospace applications
Scotch® Fine Line Tape 218 is a high-performance polypropylene plastic tape engineered for professional paint masking applications requiring crisp, sharp paint lines. This premium industrial tape features a natural rubber pressure-sensitive adhesive that delivers high instant adhesion necessary for critical, large-scale paint applications. The tape's low profile design combined with high adhesion provides excellent color line separation, making it ideal for specialty vehicle, automotive, rail, marine, and aerospace paint jobs.
The polypropylene backing is stiffer than vinyl fine line tapes while conforming easily around corners and curves. Scotch® Fine Line Tape 218 demonstrates proven performance in painting long, straight lines as well as smooth, sweeping curves. The tape resists most solvents and moisture, with excellent heat resistance in bake cycles reaching up to 250°F (121°C) for up to 30 minutes. This makes it perfect for custom, two-tone, and multiple color applications where precision and durability are essential.
Each case contains 36 rolls of 1-inch wide tape, with 60 yards per roll and 5.0 mil thickness. The tape is repositionable, clean-removing, and designed specifically for industrial and occupational use. It's commonly used as layout tape for high-value multi-color and custom painted graphics, ensuring professional results in demanding paint masking applications across multiple industries.
