The 3M™ Specialty High Temperature Masking Tape 501+ was designed to deliver clean paint lines where surface temperatures can reach up to 300°F/150°C degrees. This purple crepe paper tape is ideal for critical paint masking applications in specialty vehicle, automotive, and industrial markets where strong holding and high temperature performance is required.Using 3M proprietary adhesive, the tape sticks instantly to most surfaces, including metal, rubber, glass, and plastic, as well as EPDM-type rubber mouldings while removing cleanly in one piece. Our high-strength crepe-paper backing conforms to irregular surfaces, resists bleed-through from most industrial paint systems, improves visibility during the paint masking process, and helps you achieve sharp paint lines. The 3M Specialty High Temperature Masking Tape 501+ is an ideal tape for industrial painting, including two-tone colour applications on trucks, buses, trailers, trains, fire trucks, ambulances, and airplanes. It is easy to tear, which aids in handling, yet strong enough to resist slivering, providing "user friendly," one piece removal. The tape is conformable for easy masking around corners, over contours and irregular surfaces.
