A filament-bearing masking tape extending longitudinally and formed from and including a filament and a base tape having a first edge and a second edge parallel to the first edge. The base tape includes a carrier having upper and lower sides and extending longitudinally with a first adhesive on the lower side having a first adhesive thickness, and a second adhesive having a second adhesive thickness greater than the first adhesive thickness on the upper side, and a release liner attached to the second adhesive. The filament-bearing masking tape is formed by (a) placing the filament on the lower adhesive layer, the filament extending longitudinally, parallel to the first edge of the base tape, at a filament distance from the first edge and closer to the first edge than to the second edge, and (b) folding a first portion of the base tape extending from the filament to the first edge under a second portion of the tape extending from the filament towards the second edge of the base tape so that the first adhesive on the first portion of the base tape contacts and binds to the first adhesive on the second portion of the base tape.
