3M 7100057038 Vinyl Masking Tape 1 Inch X 36 Yd Indigo

Product Description

The 3M 7100057038 is an indigo vinyl masking tape designed for fineline paint masking applications in automotive, industrial, and general finishing work. It features a conformable vinyl backing with a rubber-based adhesive that delivers a sharp, clean paint line without leaving residue or ghosting on the surface. The tape has dead-stretch properties, meaning it stays in place once applied and does not creep or shift during the masking process. Its slightly translucent film allows for accurate placement over reference lines and patterns. Installers and finishing technicians working with tight curves or intricate stencil work will find this tape well suited to detail-oriented tasks.

This tape is used in paint booths, body shops, and finishing departments where crisp edge definition is required. It conforms to contoured surfaces and handles tight radii without lifting or wrinkling. Each roll measures 1 inch wide by 36 yards long in a distinctive indigo color. It is also used in light industrial and decorative striping applications where clean removal and residue-free release are priorities. Minimum order quantity is 6 rolls per the manufacturer packaging specification.

Installation Notes

Applied by hand without special tools; press edges firmly to prevent paint bleed under the tape edge. Surface should be clean, dry, and free of oils before application. Remove tape at a low angle while the finish is still slightly warm to minimize the risk of tearing or adhesive transfer. Follow applicable facility safety and finishing codes when working in spray booth environments.
