Exterior masking tape Painto 48 mm x 20 m (model 48020) for facade and construction use

Painto exterior masking tape 48 mm x 20 m (model 48020) is a construction-grade adhesive tape designed for facade and painting applications. With a 48 mm width and 20 m length, the tape provides precise edge protection and temporary adhesion on outdoor surfaces during painting, plastering and finishing work. It is intended to create clean paint lines, protect trims and fittings and support controlled masking on walls and other building elements exposed to outdoor conditions.

Advantages

The tape combines a weather-resistant adhesive and a paper backing that balances conformability with tear resistance, allowing easy application on flat and slightly textured surfaces. It removes cleanly from many substrates after short-term outdoor exposure without leaving significant residue. Its width provides stable alignment along corners and trims, while the 20 m roll length reduces the number of roll changes on job sites.

Suitable for

• Masking edges and trims on exterior walls
• Protecting windowsills, frames and fittings during facade painting
• Temporary surface protection during plastering and finishing
• Creating straight paint lines on façades and cladding

Key specifications

• Width: 48 mm
• Length: 20 m
• Backing material: crepe/paper-based backing suitable for outdoor masking
• Adhesive type: solvent- or acrylic-based outdoor adhesive formulated for temporary use
• Application temperature range: suitable for typical construction site outdoor conditions
• Removability: designed for short-term removal with minimal residue on common exterior surfaces

How to use

Ensure surfaces are dry and free of loose dust, grease or other contaminants before applying the tape. Unroll the required length, press the tape firmly along the edge or trim to create a tight seal and smooth out any air pockets. For corners or curved sections, apply gradually and tension the backing slightly to conform. After completing painting or finishing, remove the tape by pulling slowly at a low angle to reduce the risk of paint lifting; remove within the timeframe recommended for exterior masking to avoid difficult adhesive residue.

Usage recommendations

For best results, test the tape on a small, inconspicuous area of the actual substrate and finish to confirm adhesion and removability. Avoid long-term outdoor exposure beyond the recommended removal window and store rolls in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve adhesive performance.
