Low-reflective Finish – Thanks to the matte cloth surface
A matte cloth coating over gauze/pure cotton creates a non-reflective surface that reduces glare under strong lights. The woven backing keeps the finish stable when pressed onto uneven surfaces.
Tape remains discreet under stage and photographic lighting, keeping shots clean and reducing the need for retakes.
Clean Removal and Heat Resistance – With patented VOC-free adhesive
A patented VOC-free glue formula resists high temperatures and adhesion breakdown while still allowing hand removal. The adhesive chemistry is designed to stick securely without leaving tacky residue.
Removes cleanly after long shoots and lighting exposure, saving time on tidy-up and preventing damage to cables and surfaces.
Fast Application and Secure Hold – With a cotton gauze backing
Pure cotton gauze backing yields a strong, flexible tape that tears easily by hand and conforms to curved or irregular surfaces. The fabric weave contributes to wear resistance under foot traffic.
Quick to apply during busy set changes and reliable for bundling or repairing without needing scissors or tools.
