Alpha Nichigo G-Tape 1008 Series Surface Protection Tape – 2 in. x 164 ft., White
Alpha Nichigo G-Tape 1008 Series Surface Protection Tape is a 2 in. x 164 ft. (50 mm x 50 m) snow-white surface protection tape for masking and protecting finished stone. Alpha specifies the 1008 Series as the extra-UV-protection grade, for long-term masking and storage.
The 1008 Series is a different series from the green 1000 Series, not a color option. If the tape is coming off within days, the green Alpha Nichigo G-Tape 1000 Series is the short-term grade; use this white 1008 Series where the tape has to stay on through storage or a long site program.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long is a roll?
164 ft. (50 m), 2 in. (50 mm) wide.
What is the difference between the 1008 Series and the 1000 Series?
They are different series rather than color options. Alpha specifies the white 1008 Series as the extra-UV-protection grade for long-term masking and storage; the green 1000 Series is the other tape Alpha supplies under the Nichigo G-Tape name.
Why does UV protection matter on a masking tape?
Tape left on a surface in daylight degrades. Alpha specifies extra UV protection on the 1008 Series so it can stay in place through storage rather than being replaced.
