Instant Adhesion and Simple Application3M Masking Tape 2308 is constructed with a rubber adhesive for instant adhesion that sticks easily, reducing labor and increasing productivity. 3M Masking Tape 2308 also offers good holding power to resist lifting or curling. Its crepe paper backing provides good conformability and paint lines. 3M Masking Tape 2308 is easy to tear by hand and offers good paint hold-out that resists bleed-through.

Masking tapes from 3M adhere well, resist solvents or water from the paint, and are strong enough to hang plastic sheeting, yet remove cleanly without damaging the subsurface. The backing, typically crepe paper, can conform to curved and irregular surfaces. The tape hand tears for tool-free application.
