Temperature Use Range:
• Holding power resists the most stringent applications and bake cycles.
• Can be removed warm or cold from most surfaces without adhesive transfer.
• Has been laboratory tested on painted steel panels and found to remove cleanly
• Excellent conformability and tear properties.
• Smoothness of the backing makes this tape very “user friendly.”
• Excellent paint flake resistance.
• Balanced construction with a stronger backing gives this tape easy removal
• Good resistance to adhesive transfer on automotive type rubber moldings when
• Should not be subjected to outdoor exposure or prolonged exposure to sunlight as

and time performance may be higher or lower for a given application. Clean
removal can vary dependent on surface type, processing conditions such as
multiple bakes, type of paint involved as well as the temperature of the surface at
removal. We recommend testing the product under your conditions to determine
