FAQs
What are the dimensions of the MT Washi Tape?
This specific tape is 15mm wide and 7 meters long.
Can I write on this washi tape?
Yes, you can write on the tape with most pens, pencils, or markers, especially after it has been applied to a surface.
Is this tape waterproof?
Washi tape is generally not considered waterproof. It can withstand light moisture but is not suitable for prolonged water exposure.
Can I use this tape on fabric?
It is not primarily designed for fabric and may not adhere well or durably. Its best performance is on smooth, non-porous surfaces.
How do I remove the tape from a wall?
The tape is designed to be removed without residue. Peel it off slowly at a low angle. If residue remains or you are concerned about paint, test removal in an inconspicuous area first.
Is the metallic silver color prone to tarnishing?
Made with quality materials, the metallic finish is designed for durability. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture or harsh chemicals to maintain its appearance.
Can this tape be used for permanent crafts?
While it adheres well, it is best suited for decorative and temporary applications. For permanent bonds, consider using a stronger adhesive in conjunction with the tape.
Troubleshooting
Tape does not stick well
Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of dust or oils. For some surfaces like rough wood, the tape may have limited adhesion. Press down firmly after application.
Tape leaves residue
While designed to be residue-free, residue can sometimes occur on delicate or aged surfaces. Try gently warming the tape with a hairdryer on a low setting before peeling, or use a mild adhesive remover on the surface after removal.
Tape tears unevenly
Ensure you are tearing the tape in a quick, decisive motion. If tearing is difficult, check that the tape hasn't become brittle from prolonged exposure to heat or light.
