Abstract
A tape applicator for masking purposes utilizes a pair of frames, one of which can be used singly, which when mounted together enable the application of two parallel rows of tape which are evenly and effectively pressed against the surface to be masked by a pair of specialized applicator heads. The spacing of the two lines of tape is adjustable, and the machine can be modified by the switching of several parts to handle quarter inch or eighth inch wide tape.
