Masking tape AWTools AW26202 — 30 mm width, 60 g roll

AWTools AW26202 masking tape is a 30 mm wide tape supplied as a 60 g roll, made of thin crepe paper and designed for surface protection and paint masking. The tape offers good adhesion on a variety of surfaces including wood, metal and previously painted areas, while allowing easy hand tearing and straightforward removal when used as directed. Its resistance to paint leakage makes it suitable for precise edging and temporary fixing during renovation and construction tasks.

Advantages

The crepe paper construction provides flexibility and conforms to irregular surfaces for accurate masking. Good adhesive properties ensure the tape stays in place during painting and varnishing, yet it removes cleanly without leaving major residue when removed within recommended timeframes. The tape resists paint seepage and can be torn by hand for quick application without tools.

Suitable for

• Masking edges and trim during painting
• Temporary fixing of lightweight materials
• Protecting wood, metal and painted surfaces from overspray
• Detail work and precise edge definition in renovation projects

How to use

Ensure surfaces are clean, dry and free from dust or grease before applying the tape. Measure and cut the required length by hand, align the tape along the edge to be masked and press down firmly to secure adhesion, especially along corners and joins. Apply paint or varnish according to the product instructions, and remove the tape shortly after the paint becomes touch-dry to minimize residue and ensure clean edges. For long-term exposure to sunlight or high temperatures, test on a small area first.

Usage recommendations

For best results, avoid leaving the tape on highly porous or freshly painted surfaces for extended periods. Apply the tape with consistent pressure to prevent paint seepage under the edge; remove at a low angle and slowly to achieve the cleanest possible edge.
