Scotch® Contractor Grade Masking Tape is a general purpose masking tape designed for use on non-damageable surfaces. Use on vinyl, carpet, metal, and plastic for the protection you need to get the job done. This masking tape holds to surfaces for up to three days and then removes easily without leaving any sticky residue behind. For great paint results make sure the surface is clean, dry and dust-free so that the tape sticks properly. Next, apply the tape onto the surface while pressing down firmly as you go. And lastly, let the tape set for about 30 to 60 minutes before painting. Wait until the paint is dry to the touch before removing the tape. Lift it up by slowly pulling it back on itself, then removing at a 45-degree angle. Grade: Commercial; Core Size: 3"; Dispenser Included: No; Backing Material: Crepe Paper.
