The No. 1710 Car Detailing Masking Tape is a high-performance, off-white crepe paper tape designed specifically for automotive painting, refinishing, and detailing applications. Engineered with a natural rubber adhesive and flexible crepe paper backing, this tape delivers excellent holding power, clean removal, and reliable performance during wet sanding and spray painting processes. It is a cost-effective solution for professional body shops and car repair environments requiring precision masking and temperature resistance up to 100°C for short drying cycles.
This crepe paper masking tape is formulated to perform with both water-based and solvent-based automotive paints and lacquers. The flexible off-white crepe paper carrier conforms easily to curves, contours, and edges on vehicle surfaces, ensuring clean paint lines and effective surface protection.
The natural rubber adhesive provides strong initial tack and secure adhesion throughout the painting process while allowing clean removal after drying cycles of up to 90–100°C (30 minutes). Designed for indoor use, the tape is ideal for controlled automotive refinishing environments and works seamlessly with pre-taped masking paper and masking film for efficient coverage of large areas.
The Car Detailing Masking Tape is the go-to adhesive for several critical automotive tasks:
Q1: What is Car Detailing Masking Tape used for?
A: It is used for automotive painting, refinishing, and detailing to protect surfaces and achieve clean paint lines during spray painting and sanding.
Q2: Can I use this tape for outdoor projects?
A: This tape is not UV resistant and is designed for indoor use only. Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause the adhesive to bond too strongly to the surface.
Q3: Will it leave a sticky mess on my car after the oven cycle?
A: No. The No. 1710 is designed for clean removal after a drying cycle of up to 100°C for 30 minutes.
Q4: Is it safe for water-based paints?
A: Yes, it is fully compatible with both water-based and solvent-based automotive paints and lacquers.
Q5: How does it compare to standard blue painters tape?
A: While blue painters tape is built for long-term UV resistance on walls, this masking tape is built for the high heat and chemical exposure found in automotive repair environments.
