3M 7100088493 High Temperature Masking Tape Purple

Product Description

The 3M 7100088493 is a specialty high temperature purple masking tape engineered for critical paint masking in automotive, specialty vehicle, and industrial applications. Built on a purple crepe paper backing, it withstands surface temperatures up to 300 degrees F for 30 minutes without lifting, bleeding, or leaving adhesive residue. Each roll measures 3.93 inches wide by 60.14 yards long and weighs 1.75 pounds. Licensed tradespeople and industrial painters rely on this tape where precise, clean paint lines are required through demanding process cycles.

This tape is designed for high-performance industrial painting environments where surface temperatures spike during curing or drying. It performs in two-tone color applications on specialty and commercial vehicles, as well as general industrial paint operations. The tape conforms around corners, contours, and irregular surfaces, making it practical for complex masking layouts. It is suited for single or multi-cycle processes where the tape must hold securely from start to finish without repositioning.

Key Features

• Withstands surface temperatures up to 300 degrees F for 30 minutes
• Removes cleanly in one piece with no adhesive residue
• Ultra-high holding power prevents paint blow-by on varied surfaces
• Resists paint bleed-through for sharp, defined paint lines
• Purple backing improves job-site visibility and tears cleanly without slivering
• Conforms to corners, contours, and irregular surfaces
• Low unwind force improves handling in wide-width applications

Compatibility

Designed for use in automotive, specialty vehicle, and industrial painting applications where high temperature masking performance is required.

Installation Notes

Surface should be clean, dry, and free of oils or contaminants before application to ensure proper adhesion and clean removal. Apply with consistent pressure along the full tape edge to prevent paint bleed-through. Remove tape promptly after the process cycle while the surface is still warm for cleanest results. No special tools are required, but proper surface prep is critical to performance.
