Wide Coverage Masking for Model Painting

Precision painting on RC bodies demands reliable masking tools. The Tamiya 87164 Masking Tape with Plastic Sheeting pairs a dependable adhesive tape with an attached plastic sheet that opens to 550mm, making it easier to protect large sections from overspray.

Best Practices for Application

Apply the tape along corners or panel lines, then unfurl the sheeting to shield surrounding areas. The adhesive grip keeps the sheet in place during spraying, and the tape lifts away cleanly after the job is done.

Useful for Regular Modellers

For those who repaint shells regularly or tackle multi-colour schemes, the 550mm span cuts down on prep time and reduces the need for overlapping tape strips, giving you consistent masking results.

The plastic sheeting opens to a width of 550mm, suitable for covering wide panels or protecting work areas during spraying.
When removed carefully the tape should not harm properly cured hobby paint. Peel back slowly and keep the angle low for best results.
Yes, the large coverage is helpful when masking sections for multi-colour schemes, reducing the number of separate tape passes required.
Press the tape down firmly along the edge and remove the sheet after the paint has dried to the recommended tack level to preserve crisp lines.
