Carla Tack Cloth Blue 36X18 Inch
For basecoat applications, a blue tack rag (also known as a blue tack cloth or tag rag) is specifically designed to pick up fine dust, lint, and overspray without leaving residue—making it ideal for use before applying basecoat in automotive or industrial painting.
✅ Recommended: Blue Tack Cloth for Basecoat
Key Features to Look For:
| Feature | Why It's Important for Basecoat |
|---|---|
| Anti-static | Prevents dust re-attraction |
| Wax & silicone-free | Avoids contamination of basecoat |
| Lint-free cotton mesh | Doesn't leave fibers behind |
| Large size (e.g. 18" x 36") | Covers more surface efficiently |
| Soft, non-greasy | Won’t smear or interfere with adhesion |
⚠️ Avoid Using:
-
Yellow or red tack cloths for basecoat prep (they may have wax or leave residues).
-
Tack rags with oils or strong resins — they can cause paint defects like fisheyes.
🧽 How to Use:
-
Fold the cloth loosely (do not bunch).
-
Lightly drag across the surface — no pressure.
-
Use a fresh area of the cloth as it becomes dirty.
-
Discard after use (or keep folded in a zip-lock if reusing same day).
