How to use

Ensure the surface is clean, dry and free of dust or grease. Apply the tape by pressing it firmly along the edge to be masked, smoothing from the centre outward to ensure full contact. Carry out painting or finishing work as required. For best results, remove the tape by pulling it back slowly at a low angle once the paint is dry to the touch or within the recommended indoor removal window (up to 3 months).

Recommendations

For optimal performance on delicate or freshly painted surfaces, test a small area before full application. Avoid prolonged outdoor exposure beyond the specified 4 weeks of UV resistance to prevent adhesive residue or reduced removability.
