In automotive preparation and refinishing processes, effective masking is essential to protect areas that should not receive paint and to achieve clean, defined and professional edges. To meet the demands of body shops, CRS introduces the new CRS Orange Masking Tape, developed to combine application precision, heat resistance and clean removal on different types of surfaces.
Manufactured with a rice paper backing and high-performance acrylic adhesive, it provides an optimal balance between adhesion, stability and ease of use, making it a versatile solution for everyday preparation, touch-up and refinishing work.
Clean and defined paint edges
One of the main objectives of professional masking is to achieve a precise separation between the protected surface and the area to be painted. CRS Orange Masking Tape makes it easier to create uniform lines thanks to the characteristics of its rice paper backing, which provides good stability during application and allows greater control over the surface.
Its performance helps minimise the risk of paint bleed under the tape and contributes to more defined finishes in applications such as:
-
Automotive body refinishing work.
-
Partial repairs and touch-ups.
-
Protection of adjacent areas during paint application.
-
Masking parts and surfaces that require a precise paint line.
-
Surface preparation before painting.
Rice paper backing for controlled application
The washi-type rice paper backing provides lightness and stability throughout the masking process. With a total thickness of 90 microns and a paper weight of 45 g/m², the tape is designed to provide comfortable and precise handling during surface preparation.
This combination makes application easier on different areas of the vehicle and gives professionals greater control over the masking edge, particularly in jobs where the final finish requires a high level of precision.
Acrylic adhesive for reliable adhesion
The new tape features a high-performance acrylic adhesive that provides stable adhesion to different surfaces commonly encountered during painting and repair processes. Reliable adhesion is particularly important for keeping the tape in position throughout the different stages of the job and reducing the risk of movement or lifting that could affect the paint line.
Heat resistance up to 120 °C
Professional refinishing processes can expose masking materials to high temperatures, particularly during certain drying stages. For this reason, CRS Orange Masking Tape provides heat resistance up to 120 °C for 60 minutes, maintaining its performance during jobs that require controlled exposure to heat.
Water and UV resistant
In addition to its heat resistance, the tape features water-resistant properties and resistance to UV rays, extending its range of use for both indoor and certain outdoor applications.
This resistance provides professionals with greater flexibility when preparation or protection work needs to remain in place for extended periods.
More efficient masking for the body shop
With the new CRS Orange Masking Tape, professionals have a solution designed to meet the demands of automotive refinishing, combining precise paint edges, heat resistance, protection against outdoor conditions and clean removal.
