In the transportation industry, paint jobs often require specialised masking tapes that can withstand multiple high-temperature drying cycles. As trains and yachts are regularly stored outside after masking, the tapes must also be very UV-resistant, while simultaneously able to hold heavy masks in place.
The new tesa® 4338 High Performance Masking Grade not only meets these requirements, but is also very convenient to use. The bright-green colour helps to apply the masking tape accurately and is highly visible when its time to remove it. The tape is easy to unwind and has a finger-friendly backing. It is suitable for creating good, clean edges, and even after 14 days outdoors and six 40-minute cycles in the oven at 120°C, the high-temperature tape can easily be removed without residue.
