Product Description

mt Sets Washi Paper Masking Tape - genuine MT Kamoi Kakoshi tape produced in Japan - is a water-resistant masking tape made from Japanese rice paper. The primary difference between standard crepe paper masking tape and washi tape is that washi tape is not as thick as most crepe paper masking tapes, therefore, it is more conformable, works better on corners and leaves a finer line. It can be torn by hand and is easy to re-position. mt Sets Washi Paper Masking Tape can be used on paper, objects and walls and is semi-transparent so it can be layered for better effect especially in crafting applications. It is also easy to write on so it’s great for making notes or messages.

Choose the light 10-color set, dark 10-color set, or the slim roll 20-color set (contains all of the light and dark colors combined in a thin width roll) for all of your project applications.

Please note these rolls come on non-standard 1-1/8 inch diameter cores so they would not fit correctly in a tape dispenser designed to accept 1-inch diameter cores.

The Light 10-Color Set includes 1-roll of each:

  • rose pink, lavender, ninjin (carrot), salmon pink, wakanae (sapling), wakamidori (verdant green), baby blue, mizu (water), tamago (egg), himawari (sunflower).

The Dark 10-Color Set includes 1-roll of each:

  • wine, haimurasaki (ash purple), ruri (lapis), asahanada (shallow indigo), aonibi (will-o'-the-wisp), beige, uguisu (nightingale), cork, cocoa, peacock.

The Slim Roll 20-Color Set includes 1-roll of each:

  • rose pink, lavender, ninjin (carrot), salmon pink, wakanae (sapling), wakamidori (verdant green), baby blue, mizu (water), tamago (egg), himawari (sunflower), wine, haimurasaki (ash purple), ruri (lapis), asahanada (shallow indigo), aonibi (will-o'-the-wisp), beige, uguisu (nightingale), cork, cocoa, peacock.
* Multiple cases may be shipped per package in order to minimize the charge for shipping.

Question & Answers

User Reviews

mt Sets Washi Paper Masking Tape [Produced in Japan]
Made in the USA
hot melt rubber (synthetic)
Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
natural rubber
Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
acrylic
Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
silicone
Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
zinc oxide
Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.
Thickness, AKA caliper or gauge, refers to the distance from one surface of a tape backing, or adhesive, to the other.
1 mil = 1/1000 of an inch
Examples: 1/16 inch = 62.5 mils; 1/32 inch = 31.25 mils
