How do I choose the right tape?
Crepe tape goes with painting like walls go with a house. But not all painter’s tapes are created equally. We’ve all peeled back the masking tape only to have it tear, leave a residue, remove some of the paint – or to discover that the colour has bled beneath it. Even professionals can have a bad tape day.
Not with Kip®. Because we believe you deserve the best materials for the task at hand. But how do you know what’s best?
Simply apply our golden rule: Pay careful attention to the application and surface, because they can make all the difference in your choice of tape.
It’s always a good idea to check the conditions a particular tape is best suited for. What might seem close enough at first glance could turn out to be totally off the mark – and your paint edge.
The adhesive on the reverse is a key feature of painter’s tape. Private customers in particular place a premium on flawless results. That’s why we ensure you have exactly the right masking tape for the job.
The crepe de la crepe of masking tape.
There’s no shortage of masking tape on hardware store shelves. But it’s time to separate your new best bud from another dud. After all, why settle for any old painter’s tape when you can get high-quality masking tailored to your client’s needs, the surface and service life? Do it once, but do it right. Ideally, with an efficient system solution.
We’ve got you – and your project – covered.
With our three painter’s tapes, MASKING-TEC® CREPE MASKING TAPE, SMOOTH-TEC® SMOOTH MASKING TAPE and WASHI-TEC® GOLD MASKING TAPE, you get three different quality grades and first-time results. No touch-ups or repairs.
That adds up to the crepe de la crepe of masking tape. What more could you ask for?
