Tamiya Masking Tape Set 1mm/2mm/3mm

Tamiya has developed a thin, highly adhesive masking tape specifically for use on model kits. This paper tape, measuring 0.08mm in thickness, is designed to provide a convenient solution for separating paint during the painting process.

One of the key features of this masking tape is its ability to blend seamlessly with uneven surfaces. It does not allow the paint to seep into it, ensuring a clean, precise finish. This is particularly beneficial when working on curved parts or fine details, such as window moldings on car models or canopies on airplane models.

The tape's narrow width makes it ideal for efficient and precise painting. Users can take advantage of different tape widths to suit their specific needs, allowing for more efficient work on various areas of the model. The set includes three different widths: 1mm (length 18m), 2mm (length 18m), and 3mm (length 18m), providing versatility in the application.

To ensure the longevity of the tape, Tamiya has reinforced the sides with PET resin discs. This feature helps prevent dust from accumulating and deforming the tape, allowing it to be used repeatedly without compromising its performance.

Furthermore, the core material of the tape is made of plastic, which does not generate paper dust. This helps maintain a clean working environment, as well as prevent any unwanted particles from interfering with the painting process.

The masking tape is available in a yellow color, which provides a contrasting visual cue during the painting process. This can be particularly helpful for users who need to quickly identify the areas that have been masked off.

In summary, Tamiya's masking tape offers a convenient and effective solution for model builders looking to separate paint during the painting process. Its thin, highly adhesive nature, coupled with its ability to blend seamlessly with uneven surfaces, makes it an ideal choice for achieving precise and clean paint applications, especially on curved parts and fine details. The variety of tape widths and the reinforced design ensure a long-lasting and efficient painting experience.
