Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The dispenser comes with a roll of 10mm masking tape pre-loaded. To use, simply pull the desired length of tape and cut it using the integrated cutting edge on the dispenser. To replace the tape roll, open the dispenser (refer to product markings for mechanism), remove the spent roll, and insert a new Tamiya branded 10mm masking tape roll, ensuring it feeds correctly.
Compatibility: This dispenser is designed specifically for Tamiya 10mm masking tape rolls. It is not compatible with other brands or different widths of tape.
Care: Keep the dispenser clean by wiping it with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh solvents. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the tape's adhesive properties and the dispenser's material integrity.
