Tamiya 87208 Tamiya Masking Tape 3mm is a high-quality masking tape created especially for the needs of plastic modelers. It stands out with its narrow width of 3 mm and ultra-thin thickness of only 0.08 mm, allowing for precise application even in hard-to-reach areas and on irregular surfaces, such as curves or step details on plastic models.

This product was developed by the renowned company Tamiya—a global leader in the modeling industry—which guarantees the highest quality of workmanship and excellent utility properties. The tape is made of paper material with high flexibility and resistance to paint bleed. Additionally, it features two flexible covers made from transparent PET plastic, which effectively protect the tape from contaminants, dust, and deformation during storage. A round plastic core minimizes the risk of dust and dirt getting inside the roll, significantly extending the product's durability even during prolonged use in a modeling workshop.

Applications:

• Masking small details in plastic models in scales such as 1/24, 1/35, 1/48, 1/72.
• Creating precise painting lines on models of military vehicles, cars, airplanes, or ships.
• Protecting transparent elements—car windows, aircraft canopies, or glass domes.
• Railway modeling—masking stripes on wagons or machines.
• Paper and figure modeling—great for masking small painted areas.

The specialist Tamiya 87208 masking tape, 18 meters long, is recommended for both beginner and advanced modelers seeking high precision and clean edges when working with acrylic or enamel paints. Thanks to its flexibility and resistance to bleeding, it does not leave adhesive residue and can be easily removed without the risk of damaging the model's surface.
