Intertape Polymer Group PMD48 Blue Masking Tape 1.88in X 60yd

Product Description

The INTERTAPE POLYMER GROUP PMD48 is a dark blue crepe paper masking tape engineered for applications where the taped surface will be exposed to sunlight or outdoor weather conditions for up to 14 days. It uses a specially formulated pressure-sensitive acrylic adhesive that holds securely during the masking window, then releases cleanly from most surfaces without leaving residue. The crepe paper backing is conformable, allowing the tape to follow curves and irregular surfaces. It resists humidity and prevents paint bleed-through, making it a reliable choice for exterior painting jobs and interior window masking where direct UV exposure is a factor.

This tape is suited for residential and light commercial painting applications where standard masking tape would fail under sunlight or moisture. Typical uses include exterior trim and siding masking, interior window masking where sunlight hits the tape directly, and masking polyurethane-coated surfaces, unfinished wood, wallpaper, new drywall, unpainted drywall, and freshly painted wallboard. The consistent, easy unwind behavior allows for fast application on large jobs without tearing or flagging. Painters and general contractors working on exterior repaint projects will find the 14-day UV resistance window suitable for most job cycles.

Key Features

• UV-resistant acrylic adhesive rated for up to 14 days of direct sunlight exposure
• Resists humidity and prevents paint bleed-through for clean masking lines
• Conformable crepe paper backing adapts to curves and irregular surfaces
• Clean removal from polyurethane-coated surfaces, wood, wallpaper, and drywall
• Consistent, easy unwind for efficient application on large or repetitive masking tasks

Compatibility

Compatible for use on polyurethane-coated surfaces, unfinished wood, wallpaper, new drywall, unpainted drywall, and freshly painted wallboard. Suitable wherever masking will be exposed to outdoor weather conditions or direct sunlight through interior windows.

Installation Notes

Surface must be clean and dry before application to ensure proper adhesion. Remove the tape within the rated 14-day window to allow clean peel without adhesive transfer. In high-heat conditions, check the tape edge after painting and remove promptly once the paint film is set. Avoid applying over surfaces with loose coatings or chalking paint, as removal may lift the substrate.
