Artist Tape

Clean edges. Gentle hold. Made for the creative process.

The JusArt Artist Tape is designed for watercolor painting, masking, drafting, sketching and other creative projects where clean lines and gentle adhesion matter.

With a 0.5-inch width and 200-foot length per roll, the tape provides precise control for masking borders, geometric shapes and detailed areas. Its low-tack adhesive holds watercolor paper securely while allowing clean, residue-free removal with less risk of damaging the paper surface.

The acid-free construction helps protect artwork from discoloration, while the smooth white surface can also be written on for labeling, organizing or marking creative projects.

Choose your pack: 1 roll provides 200 ft of tape; the 3-roll pack provides 600 ft in total. Both options are 0.5 in wide.

Choose the width for your watercolor borders

Choose this 0.5-inch artist tape when you want a narrower masked border or need to work around smaller areas. For a wider strip of coverage, compare the JusArt 1-inch artist tape. Both widths provide 200 ft per roll; check the selected pack for the number of rolls.
