Intertape FM71..2 Masking Tape 6mm Blue Vinyl 36 Yd

Product Description

The INTERTAPE FM71..2 is a blue vinyl masking tape designed for paint masking applications in automotive, industrial, and general finishing work. The tape measures 6 mm wide and 36 yards long, with a total thickness of 5.4 mil. A rubber adhesive backing delivers reliable tack on a range of surfaces, and the vinyl construction gives the tape good conformability for wrapping curved or irregular contours. Tensile strength is rated at 14 pounds per inch, providing resistance to tearing during application and removal. The tape is sized for fine-line work where tight edge definition is required.

This tape is suited for paint masking operations where a narrow width is needed to define clean edges or mask trim lines. It is commonly used by automotive painters, body shop technicians, and industrial finishing professionals. The conformable vinyl backing allows the tape to follow curved body panels and moldings without lifting or wrinkling. At a bake temperature tolerance of up to 250 degrees F for 30 minutes, it is compatible with low-bake and force-dry paint cycles used in automotive refinishing environments.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style masking tape for paint masking applications requiring a narrow, conformable vinyl tape rated for low-bake and force-dry paint cycles up to 250 degrees F.

Installation Notes

Apply to clean, dry surfaces free of dust, oil, and wax before masking. Press the tape edge firmly with a squeegee or fingertip to ensure full adhesion and prevent paint bleed. Remove the tape promptly after the bake cycle while the surface is still warm to reduce the risk of adhesive transfer. No tools beyond standard taping knives and squeegees are typically required for application.
