tesa Professional 4334 Precision Masking Tape

tesa Professional 4334 Precision Masking Tape 38mm × 50m is a premium yellow Washi-paper tape designed for clean, flat and sharply defined paint edges.

The extra-thin, low-stretch Washi backing sits closely against smooth and lightly textured surfaces. This helps prevent paint from creeping beneath the masking edge and makes the tape particularly suitable for straight lines, two-colour designs and detailed painting or lacquering work.

tesa 4334 uses a balanced acrylic adhesive that provides reliable surface contact while allowing residue-free removal when used within the manufacturer’s stated application periods. It is suitable for water-based and solvent-based paints and lacquers.
