Key Sundries: Masking Products

Diamond Wall - Mesh Tape
Diamond Wall currently offers two sizes of mesh tape: 1 7/8-inch and 2 1/2-inch. Each size is available in white, yellow or blue.

The product is a water-resistant, self-adhesive fiberglass tape. Although it was intended for repairing damaged walls and for use in veneer plastering, it also works in decorative concrete applications.

ShurTape - Frogtape
FrogTape, now available from ShurTape through a licensing agreement with Inspired Technologies Inc., is reportedly the only masking tape with PaintBlock Technology, a super-absorbent polymer similar to what's used in diapers to keep babies dry. The barrier helps prevent paint or concrete products from bleeding under the tape by forming a micro-barrier along the tape's edge. FrogTape has received numerous awards, including one of Popular Science magazine's Best of What's New awards in 2007
