Seep Resistant Masking Material

摘要

A masking material and method of forming a masking tape that includes a substrate and an adhesive layer disposed on the substrate. Methods of manufacturing the masking material include features associated with forming a masking material having an adhesive layer that is preferably thicker than the substrate and includes features associated with providing an indicia associated with forming discrete rolls of the masking material with the desired degree of uniformity of an edge located adhesive. The method can also include substrate moisture, coating, and/or surface energy control or manipulation to achieve the desired adhesion between the adhesive and substrate associated with the masking material.

1. A method of forming a masking tape comprising:
applying multiple rows of adhesive to a backer material; forming an elongated roll by rolling the backer material onto itself so that the multiple rows of adhesive are captured between adjacent layers of backer material; and providing an indicia that provides an of a lateral location of at least one of the multiple rolls of adhesive relative to the backer material; and monitoring the indicia and partitioning the elongated roll into discrete rolls by cutting the elongated roll based on information associated with the indicia.
