Scotch Classic Masking Tape is a beige masking tape for use on non-damageable surfaces, with no residue if removed up to 2 days after application. Masking Tape product is made with PEFC certified paper, sourced from certified, renewable and responsibly managed forests. For great paint results make sure the surface is clean, dry and dust-free so that the tape sticks properly. Next, apply the tape onto the surface while pressing down firmly as you go. And lastly, let the tape set for about 30 to 60 minutes before painting. For tape removal, wait until the paint is dry to the touch before removing the tape. Lift it up by slowly pulling it back on itself, then removing at a 45-degree angle.
