What Is Crepe Masking Tape?

Crepe tape — also written crêpe masking tape — is a masking tape made from crepe paper coated with a pressure-sensitive rubber or acrylic adhesive. The crinkled crepe-paper backing stretches and conforms around curves and contours, and tears cleanly by hand, which makes it the standard tape for paint masking.

Figure summary: Crepe paper masking tape is single-sided: a crimped (crepe) paper backing coated with a pressure-sensitive rubber or acrylic adhesive, protected until use. The crepe paper conforms around curves and tears by hand, while the adhesive holds during painting or masking and releases cleanly afterward.

A good crepe masking tape gives a sharp paint line, resists paint bleed, and removes cleanly without leaving residue when taken off within its recommended time and temperature window.
