Nichiban #241 Masking Tape is your reliable studio and office companion, offering a level of strength and stickiness that surpasses washi tape while remaining gentle and removable, unlike traditional masking tapes. Designed for masking sensitive areas during painting, its water-resistant and super strong.

Compared to the ultra-gentle Nichiban #210 artist tape, this versatile tape offers broader practicality, staying securely in place for longer. While we advise against using it on extremely delicate surfaces like handmade paper, it excels for gift wrapping and masking on tougher artist papers, like heavyweight watercolor and drawing papers.

For best results, apply with a light touch, remove promptly, and peel slowly. Nichiban #241 remains milder than most traditional masking tapes and is favored by some artists for its enhanced visibility with its distinctive tea color.

Made from washi paper and natural rubber adhesive.
