Its flexible rubber backing hugs curves and contours without breaking, while the adhesive ensures sharp paint lines with no bleed-through.

## Description

3M Auto Care Performance Masking Tape has a green backing that is highly conformable, provides the best adhesive transfer resistance, hugs curves and contours and provides outstanding paint lines. Its release coating affords straight, clean unwinding. The adhesive sticks at a touch, stays put and removes cleanly, and leaves no sticky residue behind.

Review: Pretty good tape - I purchased this tape because it said it was good around curves. I used it to place around various bathroom accessories which we had just replaced so that we could "touch up" paint. It worked pretty well. I really does not stretch, however it was pretty easy to place around the fixtures and protect them while I touched up the areas that needed it. What I really liked was how easy it was to remove the tape when I finished. Overall, I would say that it did a good job. If you need tape for small areas: i.e. around towel bars, around door handles, this tape will do the job. Because it's only .7 inches in width, it is easy to maneuver. Was it 100%, no, but nothing really is. It did a great job and I was very satisfied.
Review: Works well! - I would recommend this tape. We used it to decorate our vehicle for a Trunk n Treat event. It is easy to use and works well. No scissors needed, sticks well, then removes easily.

Save your money and your time and buy the quality 3m masking tape it's never been cheap you get what you pay for. I have used this green tape on everything from farm equipment to wild custom paint jobs for many years. It does not leave a nasty film behind you have to worry about. This tape is plenty thick and It cuts nicely with a razor blade. Tears easy you dont have to fight it. This tape has a good adhesion it is strong adhesive so be careful removing it.
