Plastic masking films are crucial in the automotive refinish industry, offering superior surface protection during painting and refinishing. These films outperform traditional paper masking with enhanced durability, better paint adhesion resistance, and easier handling. Automotive refinish plastic masking films are typically made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE). This light weight yet durable material resists tears, punctures, and solvents. HDPE's strength and flexibility make it ideal for demanding environments where other materials might fail. The durability of the film makes it ideal for multiple use and can be reused till it loses its transparent properties.
