Description

Applied in seconds, JTAPE Primeshield prevents overspray getting inside a vehicle and enables a higher quality paint finish. And thanks to its adhesive-less technology it makes the preparation process up to 20 times faster ahead of spraying.

Application couldn’t be simpler; the figure of eight-shaped foam strip is applied to the gap via the smaller-sized section – making it easy for precise fingertip adjustment, even where extra primer is required to cover bare metal and filler patches.

It’s then removed prior to color application, while the primer is soft, to ensure a feathered finish without any need for sanding hard edges.

JTAPE Primeshield is available in either 15mm or 22mm size options to cover all vehicle types.

FIGURE-OF-EIGHT DESIGN

JTAPE Primeshield comprises a foam strip featuring a small and a large section. The smaller section is applied to the gap first, enabling precise fingertip adjustment until it sits in the central groove. The larger section should remain extended.

PROTECTS PANEL EDGES

JTAPE Primeshield seals and protects the vehicle against unwanted primer overspray to create a soft, feathered finish that eliminates the risk of primer build-up and avoids any unnecessary rework.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How does Primeshield save time?

Primeshield offers fast and efficient aperture masking thanks to the figure-of-eight design that can be adjusted with just your fingertips. It prevents the need for reworking due to excess primer build-up on panel edges that often occurs when using other non-specialist masking solutions for primer application. Instead, paint professionals can spend more time perfecting their painting techniques and achieving a high-quality finish.

What sort of finish does Primeshield leave?

Using Primeshield will leave you with a soft, feathered-edge finish without primer build-up on the panel edges. Upon removal, you’ll be left with an ideal base ready for base coat applications.

What is the shelf life of Primeshield?

We recommend storing Primeshield at 22°C (72°F) and 50% relative humidity to get the maximum shelf life of 12 months from this padded foam tape.

This tape can be applied to various surface types, including metals, plastics, rubbers, trims and wheels, offering excellent versatility.
