Masking tape Schuller Red Core 3 cm x 50 m, adhesive properties (45106)

Masking tape Schuller Red Core 3 cm x 50 m is a narrow, general-purpose painter's tape designed for temporary bonding and clean removal. The 3 cm width and 50 m length make it suitable for precise paint edge marking, protecting trim and fixtures during painting, and a variety of light-duty DIY applications. The tape adheres reliably to painted surfaces, wood, glass and metal, and is formulated to leave minimal residue when removed within recommended time frames.

Advantages

Its narrow 3 cm profile enables accurate masking for sharp paint lines, while the 50 m roll offers extended coverage for multiple tasks without frequent replacements. The paper backing is flexible enough to conform to slight contours and corners, supporting neat application on interior surfaces.

How to use

Ensure the surface is clean, dry and free of dust or grease before application. Unroll the tape and press it firmly along the intended edge, smoothing it with your finger or a putty knife to remove air pockets. For painting, apply paint up to or slightly overlapping the tape edge as required, then remove the tape within the manufacturer's recommended window to minimize residue and prevent paint lifting. For protection tasks, check adhesion periodically and replace the tape if it starts to lose tack.

Usage recommendations

For best results, apply at moderate room temperatures and avoid prolonged outdoor exposure; remove tape within 7–14 days depending on surface and conditions to ensure clean removal. Test on an inconspicuous area if using on delicate or freshly painted surfaces.
