3M 7100299472 Uv Resistant Green Masking Tape 72mm

Product Description

The 3M 7100299472 is a UV resistant green masking tape built for indoor and outdoor applications where sun exposure is a factor. Constructed from crepe paper with a strong hold adhesive, it withstands temperatures up to 175 degrees F for up to 30 minutes and maintains reliable adhesion for up to 14 days of UV exposure. Sold in a 72mm x 55m roll format, this tape is suited for paint masking, bundling, holding, sealing, and surface protection work across a wide range of substrates. Licensed painters, contractors, and general trade workers rely on it where clean removal and crisp paint lines are required.

This tape is designed for use on a variety of substrates including irregular and curved surfaces. It conforms readily to uneven profiles, making it appropriate for both standard flat-surface masking and contoured work. Suitable for residential and commercial jobsites, it performs in both interior and exterior environments where UV exposure is anticipated. Applications include paint masking prior to spray or brush application, bundling and holding components during fabrication or transit, and surface protection during finishing operations.

Installation Notes

Surface should be clean, dry, and free of dust or oils before tape application to ensure proper adhesion. Apply with firm hand pressure across the full tape edge to minimize paint bleed. Remove tape within the recommended 14-day window to avoid adhesive transfer or edge residue. No special tools are required; the tape tears cleanly from the roll by hand.
