Product Description

3M™ Scotch® Solvent Resistant Masking Tape 226 is a black polyethylene film laminated over saturated crepe paper, offering excellent resistance against a wide range of damaging chemicals. The polyethylene backing is resistant to many solvents, water solutions, emulsions, and paint strippers of the wax-base type and mild caustic solution solvent-emulsion type. This tape features a natural rubber adhesive with quick stick, good holding power, and clean removal properties on most opaque surfaces for up to three months of outdoor exposure. The saturated crepe paper layer reinforces the tape to control stretch, and it can be torn by hand for ease of use.
