3M 7000048952 Masking Tape Tan 0.47 Inch X 60.14 Yd 6.3 Mil

Product Description

The 3M 7000048952 is a high performance masking tape designed for paint masking applications in professional trade environments. Built on a thick crepe paper backing with a solvent-resistant saturant, it blocks paint bleed from both latex and oil-based paints at a tape thickness of 6.3 mil. The 0.47-inch-wide roll spans 60.14 yards, making it well-suited for extended masking runs without frequent roll changes. The rubber-based adhesive grabs immediately on contact and holds through the painting process without lifting, curling, or leaving adhesive residue on removal. Painters, contractors, and finishing tradespeople apply this tape where clean edges and residue-free removal are required.

This tape is used in residential and commercial painting and finishing applications where both conformability and clean removal are critical. It performs on flat and contoured surfaces, including corners and curved trim, where the crepe backing allows the tape to bend and flex without losing edge integrity. The solvent-free manufacturing process reduces environmental impact and makes it suitable for use in occupied or low-ventilation spaces where solvent off-gassing is a concern.

Key Features

• Sticks immediately on contact and holds without lifting or curling during paint application
• Thick crepe paper backing conforms around corners and curved surfaces while maintaining edge integrity
• Solvent-resistant saturant resists bleed from latex and oil-based paints
• Crepe backing tears cleanly by hand, resists slivering, and allows single-piece removal
• Manufactured without solvents for reduced environmental impact

Compatibility

Designed for use as a high performance masking tape on surfaces painted with latex or oil-based paints in residential and commercial painting and finishing applications.

Installation Notes

Apply to clean, dry surfaces free of dust, oil, and loose material for best adhesion and edge seal. Press the tape edge firmly along the masking line before painting to prevent bleed. Remove the tape at a low angle while the paint is still slightly wet or fully cured, depending on the paint manufacturer guidance, to reduce the risk of tearing the paint film. No special tools are required for application or removal.
