A new 3M line of masking tape can simplify vehicle painting applications, including two-tone colors on trucks, buses and trailers. The 3M Masking Made Simple lineup includes 3M high-performance green masking tape 401+. According to the company, the high-strength green crepe-paper backing conforms to irregular surfaces, resists bleed through and improves visibility during the paint masking process. The tape withstands temperatures of up to 250F for 30 minutes. Its solvent-free adhesive sticks to most metal, rubber, glass and plastic surfaces. 401+ is offered in bulk and individually wrapped rolls.
The line of new tape includes 3M Value Masking Tape 101+, 3M General Use Masking Tape 201+, 3M Performance Yellow Masking Tape 301+, 3M High Performance Green Masking Tape 401+ and 3M Specialty High Temperature Masking Tape 501+.
