Other Tapes

This flatback paper is coated on both sides with a high shear adhesive that bonds to almost any surface. Easy release crepe paper liner allows for automatic or hand dispensing applications. Excellent tensile strength, conforms to almost any surface without tearing.

Protective Film

Gruber Protective Films are perfect for protecting the finished surface of all of your cast polymer products. Different protective film products are required for cultured marble compared to solid surface, and Gruber has them both.  Designed to protect the finish of any product during shipping, storage, or installation, protective film is the best way to insure your product looks as good as the day it was made.

Note: Certain items in the list may have longer lead times and/or additional freight charges attached. Call for availability or more information.

Clear Protective Film - For Cultured Marble and General Purpose Applications

This film is specifically developed for Cultured Marble applications, with lower tack, and less residue than blue protective film.

Co-Extruded Clear Protective Film

The coextruded is a little thicker than the 2 mil regular film, and it should perform equally well on both cultured marble and solid surface applications.
Note: All co-extruded protective film is drop-shipped, and conditions apply.

For Solid Surface Applications - Blue Protective Film

Specifically designed for solid surface applications. Higher tack, with more residue than clear protective film.

* Blue Protective film and co-extruded protective film are available F.O.B. Rockledge, FL only.
** Special order item - minimum order based on size requested applies. Lead times apply.
