Expert Notes

Colad Aqua Dynamic Masking Tape 19mm x 50m is a green, saturated crepe paper tape with a silicone-free, rubber solvent based adhesive. In a detailing routine it goes on after washing and decontamination, masking rubber seals, window rubbers, badges and slim plastic trims before hand or machine polishing, and it can mark out panel sections for test spots. The 19mm width suits narrow edges where a wider roll would overlap the paint being worked on. Colad rates it at 120°C for 10 minutes, 90°C for 30 minutes and 80°C for 60 minutes, and designs it for professional users working with water-based and 2K paint systems. Pair it with polishing pads, compounds and clean microfibre towels.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Window rubbers and seals
  • Slim plastic trims
  • Badges and emblems
  • Door handles
  • Chrome and metal strips
  • Panel edges and gaps
  • Test section lines

Caution: Colad's heat rating drops as exposure lengthens, from 120°C for 10 minutes to 80°C for 60 minutes, so remove the tape promptly and test on fresh paintwork first.

How To Use

Using it

  1. Wash and dry the vehicle so the tape goes onto clean, dust-free surfaces.
  2. Pick out the rubber seals, badges and slim trims that sit next to the paint being polished.
  3. Lay the 19mm tape along each edge, keeping it tight to the panel line.
  4. Run a fingertip firmly along the tape so the edge is fully pressed down.
  5. Polish up to the tape, keeping the pad edge from riding onto it.
  6. Peel the tape back slowly on itself at a low angle once the section is finished.

Cleaning and storage

  1. Remove all tape as soon as polishing or painting is finished rather than leaving it on.
  2. Wipe polish dust from the edges you masked with a clean microfibre towel.
  3. Throw used tape away, as reapplied tape can carry dust and polish residue.
  4. Keep the roll in a sealed bag or box so its edges stay free of dust.
  5. Store rolls in a cool, dry place away from direct heat and sunlight.

Top Tip: Lay the tape down without stretching it, as stretched crepe tape tends to pull back and lift at the ends.

Performance Benefits

  • Peels away cleanly after the job
  • Holds firmly on rubber and metal
  • Applies with a sharp, clean edge
  • Marks out panels into test sections
  • Suits hand and machine polishing
  • Suits water-based and 2K refinishing

Frequently Asked Questions

What size is this roll?

This roll of Colad Aqua Dynamic Masking Tape is 19mm wide and 50m long. Colad makes the same tape in 19mm, 25mm, 38mm and 50mm widths, all on 50m rolls.

What is 19mm masking tape used for in detailing?

How heat resistant is this tape?

Colad rates Aqua Dynamic Masking Tape for 10 minutes at 120°C, 30 minutes at 90°C and 60 minutes at 80°C. Remove it promptly after any heat exposure.

Is it waterproof?

Yes, the tape uses a saturated, waterproof green crepe paper backing. Colad states this makes it suitable for water-based paint systems.

Will it leave residue on trim or paint?

The Brand

Colad

Colad is a brand of products for paint professionals, with tools for masking, painting and protection as well as sanding, mixing and paint processing. It is one of three specialist brands within EMM International, alongside Finixa and Hamach, which EMM distributes from Zwolle in the Netherlands and its global branches. EMM and its brands are part of PPG, and Colad says it works with the paint processing industry to create smart and technical solutions for paint application, with paint professionals and the quality of their work at the centre.

The Drivers HQ stocks two Colad product lines for paint and bodywork preparation. Aqua Dynamic Masking Tape comes in 19mm, 25mm, 38mm and 50mm widths, each on a 50m roll, so you can match the tape to the edge, trim or panel you are masking. Colad Waterproof Sanding Sheets are sold here as single sheets in 1000, 1500, 2000 and 3000 grit, giving a step by step choice of wet sanding grades for refining a painted surface before it is polished.

Colad designs its products for paint professionals, and the tape and sheets stocked here also suit enthusiasts carrying out touch ups, small repairs or careful correction work at home. Masking tape protects trim, rubbers and neighbouring panels while you sand, spray or polish, and a clean tape edge gives a neater finished line. Waterproof sheets are used wet to level small paint defects, working from a coarser grit to a finer one before a compound and polish bring back the gloss.

Buy Colad from The Drivers HQ with UK-wide delivery by tracked Royal Mail, or collect your order free of charge from our walk-in store in Ilkeston, Derbyshire. Because the sanding sheets are sold individually, you can pick up only the grits a job needs, add the right width of masking tape and combine them with compounds, polishing pads and microfibre cloths from the rest of our range in a single order.

Colad Waterproof Sanding Sheet 1000 Grit, three dark grey abrasive sheets fanned out

Masking Tape and Wet Sanding Sheets

Aqua Dynamic Masking Tape is designed for professional users and for jobs where waterborne or 2K paint systems are used. Colad describes it as a waterproof green crepe paper tape with temperature resistance of up to 120 degrees for 10 minutes, a sharp and clean edge for precise application and strong adhesion to both rubber and metal. The brand also says the tape can be removed easily and without residue.

Colad Waterproof Sheets are made from specially prepared latex waterproof paper and are designed for wet sanding of all paints. The brand says they remove scratches from the painted surface, which can then be polished to a high gloss finish, that precision placed grain gives an extremely uniform surface, and that an accurate grain bond system means fewer scratches. Colad supplies them in 230 x 280 mm sheets, 50 to a sleeve, in grades from P600 to P3000, while The Drivers HQ sells single sheets.

The Drivers HQ stocks the tape in four widths, from 19mm for fine edges and trim to 50mm for covering larger areas, and the sheets in 1000, 1500, 2000 and 3000 grit. Working through the grits in order and keeping the sheet and surface wet lets each stage remove the marks left by the one before, ready for machine or hand polishing.
