Masking Tape consists
of crepe paper, coated with rubber based pressure-sensitive
adhesive capable of withstanding bake temperature up to 80 deg C
for one hour and/or exposure to ultra-violet (UV) light for up
to 5 hours. It offers consistent conformability and tensile
strength for general purpose bundling, protecting and various
industrial applications.
