Performance Masking Tape
3M masking tape 2380 is a 7.5mil smooth, strong, mini-crepe paper tape suitable for most paint applications. It has a natural/synthetic rubber adhesive blend. It was designed for industrial use where a good paint line is desired and drying conditions range from air dry to an oven bake. 2380 is conformable, hugs curves and contours, goes on quickly and easily, sticks at a touch and stays put. Each feature is balanced to give outstanding masking results. 2380 masking tape is recommended for less critical color separation in paint masking operations. It is a reliable masking and removes cleanly on surfaces for functional coatings or paints, splicing, & heavy duty maintenance. 3M class II, Silver paint masking.
