3M 26332 233+ Series Scotch Performance Masking Tape, 55m x 12mm, Green, Case of 48

I found 233+ four years ago when I bought a selection of tapes hoping for something better than blue painters for yacht fine varnish work. Its proven fantastic in every way, won't ever use anything else, low to no waste, never bleeds when edges smoothed with plastic putty knife, easy to bend to curves using leading first finger technique and cuts to outer edge as needed. Pulls off totally clean. Have had to leave on for three days. Wouldn't leave on longer in damp conditions, wish 3M gave estimated days in wet weather. So worth a bit of added cost when compared to getting varnish off where wood meets non-skid or gelcoat.

It works far better than any other masking tape for all types of applications.
