FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Q: How does it prevent hard paint edges?
A: The oval foam compresses when pressed, creating a gradual fade-out effect for seamless blending.
Q: Can it be used in baking ovens?
A: Yes! It withstands up to 120°C (248°F), making it suitable for low-bake refinishing.
Q: Does it leave adhesive residue?
A: No! The rubber-based adhesive removes cleanly from most surfaces.
Q: What’s the difference between 13mm and 19mm?
A: 13mm for narrow gaps (door edges), 19mm for wider gaps (trunk lids).
Q: Can I reuse the tape?
A: No, it’s designed for single-use to ensure paint integrity.
Q: Is it better than regular masking tape?
A: Yes! It seals gaps + softens edges, unlike flat tapes that cause bleed-through.
