Advanced Foam Masking Tape

PART NO: 1011.2050

Advanced Foam Masking Tape is an excellent alternative to standard, round, smooth-edge foam masking tapes. The foam tape is designed to mask all apertures of the vehicle and prevents overspray, saving valuable time during the automotive painting process and leaving you with a high quality finish with every application.

Our Advanced Foam Masking Tape is designed to make the automotive painting process easier and more efficient around tricker apertures such as bonnets, doors and boots. Thanks to the innovative offset adhesive, it can be applied and adjusted with ease whether you’re masking off moving or fixed parts. The unique design helps prevent base and clear coat build up on the foam, ensuring a clean and professional finish with no build-up of hard edges.

 Our Advanced Foam Masking Tape is an excellent choice of automotive tape for many repair shop masking needs, from SMART repairs to blending paint jobs.

How to Use

For moving parts:

Step 1: Apply the offset adhesive to the moving part, making sure not to stretch the tape during application. Leave the non-adhesive section extended and apply pressure to secure the foam tape in place.

Step 2: Close the moving part and adjust the tape back into the gap with your fingertips.

Step 3: After applying the base coat, adjust the foam tape back again to prevent clear coat and base coat build up on the foam.

Step 4: Once the clear coat application is finished and the bake cycle is done, stretch the tape to release the adhesive and remove it from the vehicle.

For fixed parts:

Step 1: Apply Advanced Foam Masking Tape to the back edge of the fixed part while the adjacent aperture is open, leaving the non-adhesive section extended. Press the tape down with your fingertips to secure it in place.

Step 2: Close the adjacent aperture and adjust the foam tape into the gap using your fingertips.

Step 3: Once the base coat is applied, adjust the tape back again to guarantee a perfect clear coat application.

Step 4: After the clear coat application and baking, remove the Advanced Foam Masking Tape by stretching to release the adhesive.
