Professional-grade fine line masking tape with natural rubber adhesive for crisp paint edges, heat-resistant up to 250°F, ideal for automotive and aerospace applications.
Scotch® Fine Line Tape 218 is a high-performance polypropylene plastic tape engineered specifically for professional painting applications requiring crisp, sharp paint lines. This premium masking tape features a natural rubber pressure adhesive that delivers instant adhesion for critical, large-scale paint applications in automotive, aerospace, marine, and specialty vehicle industries. The tape is ideal for painting long straight lines and sweeping curves where color separation and edge precision are paramount.
The tape's low profile design combined with high adhesion provides excellent color line separation while resisting most solvents and moisture. Its polypropylene backing is stiffer than vinyl fine line tapes, allowing it to conform easily around corners without compromising performance. Scotch® Fine Line Tape 218 resists heat in bake cycles up to 250°F (121°C) for up to 30 minutes, making it suitable for applications requiring thermal stability. This tape is commonly used as a layout tape for high-value multi-color and custom painted graphics, ensuring professional results every time.
Available in a 48-inch width with 60 yards of coverage per roll, this industrial-grade masking tape is sold as a single case unit. It features clean removal properties and is repositionable, allowing for adjustments during application. The tape is specifically designed for industrial and occupational use by trained professionals in manufacturing, automotive customization, aerospace, and specialty vehicle painting operations.
