Masking tape, also known as painter's tape, is a type of pressure-sensitive tape that is commonly used for painting. It is made of a thin and easy-to-tear paper that is coated with a low-tack adhesive. The adhesive is strong enough to stick to surfaces, but can be easily removed without leaving residue or damaging the underlying surface.
Masking tape is used to protect areas that should not be painted, such as trim, windows, and door frames. It is also used to create straight lines and geometric shapes when painting.
Masking tape is available in various widths and can be found at hardware stores, paint stores, and online retailers. Some types of masking tape are designed for specific surfaces, such as delicate surfaces or rough surfaces, so it's important to choose the right type for the job.
It's also important to follow proper application techniques when using masking tape, such as smoothing out any bubbles or wrinkles and allowing the adhesive to fully adhere to the surface before painting.
