Lichamp 4 Pack Red Painters Tape for Professionals

The Lichamp Painter painters tape masking tape, Red, 2(1.95) inches wide, 55 yards per roll, 4 rolls include, total 220 yards, is a multi-surface red painter's tape that provides excellent adhesion to a wide variety of surfaces in numerous fields, such as smooth or lightly textured walls, trim, baseboards, tile, and glass. This red tape for painters with a medium adhesive can be easily removed with no damage or sticky residue left behind in 14 days, eliminating the need to worry about cleaning up sticky spots on walls after wall painting or on items that have been labeled.

The tape's features include good instant adhesion that sticks to a wide range of surfaces and helps reduce labor, good holding power to help resist lifting or curling, and a crepe paper backing that provides conformability for easy handling and application. Additionally, the tape is easily hand-tearable, yet resists slivering, and the special backsize treatment provides an easy-to-use controlled unwind.

To use the tape effectively, the surface should be clean, dry, and dust-free to ensure proper adhesion. The tape should be laid onto the surface, pressing down as you go, without stretching it to prevent lifting or breaking. It is recommended to press the tape down firmly with a smooth edge, like a putty knife or credit card, and wait 30 to 60 minutes before beginning the painting process. Once the paint is dry to the touch, a putty knife or razor blade should be used to score along the edge of the tape, preventing the paint from being pulled up with the tape and from cracking along the paint line. Finally, the painter's tape should be removed by lifting it up and pulling it back on itself, at a 45-degree angle or a 90-degree angle if the adhesive sticks to the surface.

This wide red painters' tape, with its 2-inch width and 4-pack configuration, providing a total of 220 yards, is designed for indoor and outdoor use. The tape's typical physical properties include an adhesion to steel of 25 oz./in. width (27 N/100 mm), a tensile strength of 19 lbs./in. width (333 N/100 mm), an elongation at break of 8%, a tape thickness of 4.4 mils (0.11 mm), and a temperature use range of up to 200°F (93°C) for 30 minutes. It is recommended to store the tape under normal conditions of 70°F (21°C) and 50% R.H. in the original carton.
