Reviews

Review Summary

The reviews highlight that this masking tape, often in a 6mm width, is highly valued for its excellent adhesion and ease of removal without leaving residue or damaging paint. Users appreciate its ability to create crisp, sharp lines for painting, especially on small details and curves, though some note it lacks flexibility for more complex contours compared to vinyl options. The accompanying dispenser is frequently praised for making application and cutting more convenient.

Invaluable product for most modeling needs

By: ajwargo

With a 6mm width, this is probably the most used masking tape I have in my tool kit. The tape has the right amount of tackiness and won't leave a residue and the dispenser makes it very handy to use. Being a paper tape, however, it doesn't have any flexibility for masking curves, which a vinyl tape would offer.

Best Tape, Best Deal

By: isaackeller90 (Somerset, MA)

This is an excellent tape with great adhesive quality's for paint. Its almost silly not to buy a roll of these masking tapes if you can afford it then all three are the way to setup your work area. Google can help translate mm to say inches or centimeters which ever you prefer check that out if your confused. I highly recommend having this tape in your arsenal

Best Tape Anywhere

By: JesusFreak

I've been using this since shortly after beginning modelling. It works great! The tape holds close to the plastic and thus prevents paint from seeping under the tape. It's thin, so one can use it in small spaces. It removes without residue. The case takes up hardly any space wherever it's stored. And the price is reasonable. Well worth your buy!
