TAMIYA Masking Tape For Curves 12mm
Description:
Masking is a job which modelers of all kinds in every scale must carry out, and it requires precision to ensure that your creation gets the perfect paint job. This masking tape helps in the process, allowing smooth and secure masking-off of curved lines where standard masking tape would sustain creases and possibly let paint seep underneath. At 12mm it becomes the widest in the Tamiya range, and is great for covering larger areas in one large sweep. This tape is also available in 3 other widths to meet a variety of needs such as 2mm, 3mm and 5mm respectively.
• Length of each roll: 20m
• A soft resin material is used, allowing the tape to adhere in a curved line while preventing paint from seeping into masked off areas.
