High-performance polypropylene fine line tape with rubber adhesive for professional paint masking. Delivers crisp edges, excellent color separation, and heat resistance up to 250°F. Ideal for automotive, aerospace, and specialty vehicle applications.
Scotch® Fine Line Tape 218 is a high-performance polypropylene plastic tape designed specifically for professional painting applications requiring crisp, sharp paint lines. This premium masking tape features a natural rubber pressure-sensitive adhesive that delivers high instant adhesion for critical, large-scale paint applications including automotive, aerospace, marine, and specialty vehicle paint jobs. The tape's low profile and high adhesion characteristics provide excellent color line separation, preventing soak-in and edge-lifting while maintaining clean removal without residue.
The polypropylene backing is significantly stiffer than vinyl fine line tapes, yet it conforms easily around corners and curves for smooth, sweeping applications. This versatile tape resists heat in bake cycles up to 250°F (121°C) for up to 30 minutes and demonstrates excellent resistance to most solvents and moisture, making it ideal for demanding industrial environments. Available in a 2-inch width with 60 yards of tape per roll on a 3-inch plastic core, each case contains 24 rolls for bulk purchasing and project continuity.
Perfect for fine line paint masking, layout tape for high-value multi-color and custom painted graphics, and specialty applications across aerospace, automotive, rail, marine, and transportation industries. The repositionable nature of this single-sided tape allows for easy repositioning during application, while its 720% elongation at break provides flexibility for complex masking patterns and curved surfaces.
