ok, heres the scoop on the tape the blue is medium adhesion,the beige is light adhesion,the green is high adhesion !! so there,also the blue in my opinion is the best because it has a 14 day clean removal and is uv and sunlight resistant perfect for us fl guys !!!!

If you use a masking tape other than BLUE and leave it in the hot sun for a while, you might as well get a new paint job.

Nuff Said.

U guys are on CRACK!
U should put two layers on the steering wheel, dash and seats and headliner.
OH, don't forget to: Wrap yourself in the blue tape completely before u go for a drive.

If you lived in Florida you would understand how much detailing time this blue tape will save them when they arrive at the show..Not to mention possible rock chips..2-3 hour drive on the highway can be messy at times, especially from the bugs..

Thumbs up

...LOL

If I see a car like this on the road, I'll wonder what happened under the tape.

Overall, it's a good idea to prevent rock chips in a cost effective way.
