What is masking film?
Covering film is a thin but strong plastic film used to protect surfaces from paint, dust, dirt and moisture. It is often made of polyethylene, which makes masking film light, flexible and tear-resistant. Masking film is available in various thicknesses, widths and designs; from simple clear film to professional paint adhesive film with special coating. It is an essential tool for both professionals and do-it-yourselfers who want to work cleanly and efficiently.
What do you use masking film for?
You use masking film wherever protection is needed during painting, spraying or renovation work. Think of covering cars, windows, floors, furniture, window frames, machines or facades. In the auto paint shop, masking film is used to tape and protect car and body parts from overspray. In construction and interior work, it prevents paint, varnish or plaster from getting into unwanted areas. Also in industrial environments, this special film is used to keep valuable equipment dust-free during operations. In short:
- Cars and vehicles at auto paint jobs
- Windows, window frames and doors during painting work
- Floors, furniture and kitchens during renovations
- Machinery and equipment in industrial environments
- Outdoor projects where protection from sun, rain and dirt is needed
What masking film do I need?
Choosing the right masking film depends on the type of job you want to do. For painting and spray painting, paint adhering film is recommended so that lacquer, paint and primer remain in place and do not "bleed through" to the substrate. Do you want the best protection? Then choose special protective film. Are you working outside? Then choose UV-resistant masking film that does not weather in sunlight. Do you want to work quickly and efficiently, for example when covering window frames or small areas? Then covering film with tape is ideal. In addition, pay attention to the thickness: the thicker the film, the better the protection against tearing and leakage.
Masking film with Tape integrated
Masking film with tape integrated works even faster and more efficiently than you already did. The tape sits directly on the edge of the film, allowing you to easily tape and mask surfaces in one operation. This film is often statically charged, so it sticks lightly to the surface and stays well in place while working. Because of the tape, you stick the masking film directly to the surface. Perfect for protecting edges, windows, window frames and bodywork. After use, easily remove the film without adhesive residue.
Paint adhesive masking film for spray painting
Paint adhesive masking film is especially for covering cars, trucks and other vehicles during professional paint jobs. This film has a special coating so that primer, basecoat and clearcoat permanently adhere to the film and do not bleed through to the vehicle bodywork. This paint adhesion property of the film prevents paint from dripping or coming off during spraying. Despite its strong quality, the film is easy to cut with a film cutting blade. Ideal for body shop, auto body repair and industrial paint shops.
