Masking tape
Masking tape is available in two widths approx 1 inch and 2 inches wide and is designed for temporary fixing. This crepe finish paper tape is easy tear and the low tack adhesive is designed to leave no residue if removed within 24 hours. As rolls age the adhesive on the exposed edges can become brittle causing the paper to tear along the length as it is applied. To avoid this, buy masking tape as required and store part-used rolls in a clean air tight plastic bag or cling film avoiding extremes of temperature.
