Just a bit of stretchiness gives 3M Scotch® Performance Masking Tape the perfect properties for clamping small moldings and other delicate parts. Designed as a high-performance green masking tape for the auto body industry, woodworkers have discovered that its strength and elasticity make it a great binding tape that pulls parts together, rather than just holding them in position. You can even fold mitered joints together, with the tape holding the outside corner tight as you fold. Luthiers and guitar makers use it to clamp edge bindings and other decorative elements. Or use it to apply shelf edging. Once you see how easy it is to use, you’ll find all kinds of opportunities to clamp instead of nail, eliminating putty, sanding and the risk of cracked moldings.
Features:
- Elasticity lets you apply tension before pressing the tape down
- Rubbery adhesive adds stretchiness and better holding power
- Peels off neatly without lifting coatings or leaving a residue
- In masking applications, leaves a clean, sharp paint line
- Excellent end-to-end strength for resistance to breaking
- Superior conformability to curved and contoured surfaces
