Clean Edges Every Time
Wide format masking built for serious bodywork prep
At 36mm, this tape covers panel edges and trim lines in fewer passes than standard narrower tape, saving time during busy repair or correction sessions. The adhesive is tuned to release cleanly from automotive surfaces, so there is no chasing adhesive residue after the job is done.
Why This Tape
Less prep faff, cleaner results
Four reasons it earns a spot in every detailing kit.
-
Wider, Faster Coverage
At 36mm, you mask panel edges and trim lines in fewer strips, cutting prep time on every repair.
-
Residue-Free Removal
The adhesive lifts cleanly from paint, glass and rubber seals with no sticky aftermath.
-
Conforms to Contours
Eases around curves and body lines without lifting or kinking, keeping your boundary sharp.
-
Protects Adjacent Panels
Keeps overspray, compounds and touch-up product exactly where you want it - and off where you don't.

Works With Your Workflow
Consistent tear and tension for controlled application
The tape feeds with consistent tension and tears cleanly by hand, which matters when you are mid-repair and working alone. It conforms to body curves and contours without lifting, and it pairs directly with the Soft99 repair and touch-up range for a seamless prep-to-paint process.

Solid tape for bodywork prep. It conforms to the door curves on my sedan better than the generic hardware-store stuff I was using before. Residue-free removal is the real win here.

Neat, consistent adhesion and it tears cleanly off the roll. Used it alongside masking paper for a bonnet respray and the boundary lines came out crisp.

Arrived well packaged from Detailer SA. The wider format is genuinely more useful than standard tape when you need to protect a large section fast. Does the job without lifting or leaving sticky marks.
Questions
Frequently asked
What is the tape size?
Each roll is 36mm wide and 9 metres long, giving you enough tape to mask multiple panels or a full repair area without needing to piece shorter lengths together.
Will it leave adhesive residue on my paintwork?
No. The adhesive is formulated specifically for clean removal from automotive paint and trim. Pull the tape back slowly at a low angle once you are done and it should come away without leaving any sticky residue.
Is it safe to use on clear coat, wrapped panels or PPF?
It is designed for use on standard automotive paint and trim surfaces. On PPF or vinyl wraps, test a small hidden area first and remove the tape as soon as the work is complete - the longer any tape sits, the higher the chance of adhesion issues on sensitive films.
Can I use it on glass and rubber seals?
Yes. Protecting glass and rubber seals is one of the stated use cases. The adhesive is formulated to lift cleanly from these surfaces, making it well suited to masking window edges and door seals before paint correction or spot repairs.
How long can I leave the tape on before removal becomes a problem?
For best results, remove the tape as soon as the work is done and the product has flashed or cured as required. Extended exposure to heat, UV or certain solvents can make any masking tape harder to remove cleanly, so do not leave it on overnight if you can avoid it.
Does it conform to curved body panels?
Yes. The tape is designed to conform well to curves and body contours. For very tight radii, apply the tape in shorter sections and ease it around the curve gradually rather than pulling it taut.
What Soft99 products is it compatible with?
It is listed as compatible with the Soft99 repair and touch-up product range, including scratch repair kits and aerosol touch-up work. It is a general-purpose automotive masking tape, so it works alongside most other detailing and bodywork products too.
Do I need masking paper as well, or will the tape alone protect a full panel?
For small boundary lines the tape alone is sufficient, but Soft99 recommends pairing it with masking paper or newspaper when you need to protect a full panel from overspray. The tape holds the paper in place and creates the clean edge, while the paper handles the broad coverage.
