3M Fine Line Masking Tape #218 (Scotch Fine Line Tape 218) is a high-performance, film-backed masking tape. It gives crisp paint lines and clean color separation. Painters, detailers and sign makers use it for two-tone work, paint striping, lettering and other precision masking.

• Can be applied over freshly cured lacquer, enamel and urethane paint systems with less risk of imprint damage
