Reviews : Tamiya Model Masking Tape

The tape lays down nicely and pulls off easily. I didn't have any problems with paint bleeding through the tape, and I had clean mask lines when I burnished the tape down with a cotton swab and also just using my finger on flat open areas. The dispenser is nice in that it keeps the tape clean, but the design makes it tedious to get a hold of the tape to pull a piece off because you can't get your finger under the tape as it sticks to the flat part of the dispenser. If you use your fingernail to peel it then you ruin an clean edge of the tape. So I usually use a pair of tweezers or the back of my hobby knife to lift the tape up near the dispensers serrated cutting edge.

For me Tamiya masking tape is an essential workbench tool for building plastic models. I have been using Tamiya masking tape for years now and in my opinion it is most definitely one of the finest masking agents around. Always sticks well and easy to dispense. This is the intermediate size 10mm, and is as useful as the other two sizes by Tamiya. This is the middle size of 10mm and is just as useful as the other two Tamiya sizes. I build 1-72 planes and vehicles, and this masking tape is always helpful.

I had been using another masking tape but had issues with the adhesive removing some paints. I've used this tape on at least 10 kits and I have had great results. It will not mark areas already painted and holds very well. The 10 mm tape is a generally good size, but I'm probably going to buy the other sizes as well for versatility. All of Tamiya's products I have used are fantastic.

This is an excellent tape with great adhesive quality's for paint. Its almost silly not to buy a roll of these masking tapes if you can afford it then all three are the way to setup your work area. Google can help translate mm to say inches or centimeters which ever you prefer check that out if your confused. I highly recommend having this tape in your arsenal

This tape is what hobbyists use to cover their plastic models while painting. It sticks on evenly and comes off easily without ruining your paint job. Keep in mind, though, that the results won't look picture-perfect every time, especially if you're working small. And the dispenser comes apart from time to time. But it's still way better than regular tape.

This is a great tape for masking around a cockpit for painting. Whats really great is how it will curve around an area that needs to be masked before painting.

Holds the sharpest line I’ve seen yet, but I haven’t tried automotive tape. This is easier to get a hold of, and possibly cheaper.

It is what it is. Tamiya makes a great masking tape, if you burnish the edges, no paint gets below, and it works quite well.

Very good tape and stays. We’re. You put it just getting. Back in modeling and very pleased with product

Very good masking tape. It sticks to plastic just fine, and it wont leave adhesive residue on you work.

So easy to use, perfectly designed dispenser. Cuts masking time in less than half. Excellent product.
