Q1 Ultimate Masking Tape

£3.25

The Q1 Ultimate Masking Tape is a professional-grade automotive masking tape engineered for critical masking applications in collision repair and refinishing. Designed to deliver reliable adhesion and consistent performance, it provides smooth, controlled unwinding and conforms closely to both regular and irregular surfaces. Its thicker crepe-paper construction allows the tape to stretch and mould around curves, edges and complex shapes without easily lifting or tearing. With excellent resistance to high temperatures, moisture and a range of automotive coatings, Q1 Ultimate Masking Tape is built for demanding bodyshop environments where clean, dependable masking is essential.

How to Use

Ensure the surface is clean, dry and free from dust, grease or contaminants before application. Apply the Q1 Ultimate Masking Tape along the required masking area, pressing the tape firmly into edges, curves and contours to ensure secure adhesion. Its flexible crepe-paper construction can be stretched and shaped around irregular surfaces for accurate masking. Apply the required coating and follow the appropriate drying or baking process, observing the tape's temperature limits. Once painting is complete, carefully remove the tape to reveal a clean masked edge without adhesive residue. For best results, always test on sensitive or unfamiliar surfaces before use.

Real professionals who keep their word

My order arrived with the box opened and products missing. I contacted the store by email and they responded very quickly. They called me personally and assured me the missing items would arrive the next day, along with a small gift as compensation.

Cheapest paint store

Cheapest paint store I've found. Two free cans when you order over £40, crazy deals on pens at the moment. Every time I order they pack in a fredo too, which gets me excited not going to lie.

So fast! 20 hours to ship a 20kg package!

Ten out of Ten! All present and correct and a couple of free cans and stickers and the paint was delivered barely 20 hours after the order was made. What more could you ask for?

So much better than elsewhere

So much better than the main competitor (you know the ones). Always get my paint on time (unlike the competitor who take a week to ship it out sometimes). Alfreshco Dave is the man!
