High-performance green masking tape for professional paint applications with crisp edges, solvent resistance, and heat tolerance up to 250°F for automotive and aerospace use.
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 tape features both low profile and high adhesion properties, making it ideal for painting long straight lines and sweeping curves in automotive, aerospace, marine, and specialty vehicle applications. The tape's natural rubber pressure adhesive delivers high instant adhesion necessary for critical, large-scale paint applications, while the polypropylene backing is stiffer than vinyl fine line tapes yet conforms easily around corners.
The tape is resistant to most solvents and moisture, providing excellent color line separation with minimal soak-in and edge-lifting. It resists heat in bake cycles up to 250°F (121°C) for up to 30 minutes, making it suitable for post-paint curing processes. With 720% elongation at break and 13 lb/in tensile strength, this tape offers superior flexibility and durability. Each case contains 72 rolls of 60-yard length tape on 3-inch plastic cores, providing ample supply for large-scale professional projects.
Perfect for fine line paint masking, specialty vehicle customization, multi-color and two-tone applications, and layout work for high-value custom painted graphics. The green color provides excellent visibility during application and removal, and the tape is repositionable for easy adjustment before final positioning.
