Why mask when polishing?

Anyone involved in paint defect correction through polishing will quickly realize the need to protect plastic, trim, and gaps. For many enthusiasts, the search for masking tape typically begins at the local hardware store. However, masking tape for painting is unsuitable for masking for polishing, as these tapes are often rough and not designed to withstand the stresses of over-polishing.

KAMOI Masking Tape Kabuki-S and Big Boss from Japan: The Best Choice for Protection During Polishing

When selecting our product range, we rely on the expertise of the best in the industry, with whom we have good, friendly relationships. This showed us that current masking tapes are okay but still do not reach the level of "best detailing masking tape." The combination of adhesive strength, ability to be polished over – without lifting at the edges and thus releasing adhesive to the polishing pad – and tear resistance is still unsurpassed. As a benchmark, we were shown KAMOI Kabuki-S, which comes from Japan.

As we already had three masking tape manufacturers in our range, and we generally make product decisions through our own tests and evaluation processes, we intensively examined KAMOI masking tape. At 18 meters per roll and due to the very small core, KAMOI masking tape is significantly smaller than all other masking tapes. This quickly proves to be a great advantage when working indoors or when taping small areas such as emblems and logos. The strength in combination with the flexibility is fantastic, making the Kabuki-S tape feel almost rubbery and very easy to guide around curves and corners. When we tested several tapes with flour and activated carbon – that's right – we found no noticeable adhesive residue after removal, neither on the Kabuki-S nor on the slightly cheaper Big Boss. Overall, we can confirm that KAMOI masking tape is the gold standard!

From Japan? That must be expensive!

As an official partner of KAMOI, we import the tapes directly from Japan and sell them in their original sealed packaging units of up to 20 rolls. With the DETAILER set, we offer all available sizes in a trial kit. In terms of price per meter, we are on par with other masking tapes. With the slightly cheaper KAMOI Big Boss masking tape, another color is available: pink. Big Boss offers slightly stronger adhesion and slightly less flexibility. KAMOI Kabuki-S and Big Boss are approved for paint drying at 100 degrees Celsius for up to 30 minutes and are therefore the most popular tape among paint shops in Japan.
