Paper adhesive tape Polax 48 mm x 40 m, yellow — masking/taping paper roll

Paper adhesive tape Polax 48 mm x 40 m, yellow — masking/taping paper roll is a crepe paper tape designed for masking, painting and temporary surface protection. The tape combines a natural paper backing with a pressure-sensitive adhesive that adheres reliably to walls, trim, glass and many other substrates while allowing clean removal without leaving residue when used indoors. Its 48 mm width and 40 m length make it convenient for both small touch-up jobs and larger painting tasks, delivering straight paint lines and controlled tearing for precise application.

Advantages

The Polax paper adhesive tape provides consistent adhesion and easy, residue-free removal on typical interior surfaces. Its paper backing tears easily by hand, enabling quick positioning and tailoring without tools. The yellow color improves visibility during masking and labeling tasks, and the tape’s width balances coverage with handling precision. Overall, the tape supports neat paint edges and temporary bundling or marking where damage-free removal is required.

Suitable for

• Masking trims, skirting boards and window frames during interior painting
• Protecting glass, switches and fittings from paint splatter
• Creating straight paint edges and sharp lines
• Temporary bundling, holding and labeling of materials
• General DIY and maintenance tasks requiring easy removal

Key specifications

• Material: crepe paper backing with pressure-sensitive adhesive

• Color: yellow

How to use

Ensure the surface is clean, dry and free of dust or grease before applying the tape. Unroll the required length and apply by pressing the tape firmly along the edge to form a tight seal against the surface. For straight lines, use steady tension while unrolling and align the tape edge with the desired paint line. After painting, remove the tape slowly at a low angle while paint is still tacky or after it has fully dried, depending on the paint manufacturer’s guidance, to achieve a clean edge and prevent peeling.

Usage recommendations

For best results on delicate or freshly painted surfaces, test a short tape length in an inconspicuous area to confirm clean removal. Avoid prolonged exposure (several days or more) in direct sunlight or high humidity to reduce the risk of adhesive residue when removed.
