Saw this on another modelers FaceBook page

Tamiya Curve Tape

Looks promising.

Now that is something I will have to take a look at once it becomes available. Anything that makes a masking line more impermeable is ok by me.

I wonder how it will differ (if in fact it does) from regular Tamiya tape cut into thin strips. The description mentioned a resin layer to better seal the edge. Will have to see when it becomes available.

I picked some up the other week (and got to play with it at the Tamiya booth at the Shizuoka hobby show). It's quite different than regular Tamiya tape. That one is made of a paper based tape.. this curve tape is like a thin vinyl tape.

Can't think of too many builds where that won't be a 'big plus', especially with masking off radomes and stuff.
