The tesa® Professional 4440 Precision Masking® Exterior is a premium masking tape designed for demanding exterior painting work. Thanks to its robust Washi paper composition and specially formulated acrylic adhesive, it can remain in place for up to 26 weeks without leaving residue, allowing you to plan multiple work phases in a single application.
Ensure the surface is clean, dry and dust-free before applying the tape. The particularly conformable Washi backing allows the tape to adapt perfectly to irregular surfaces such as light render. Press the edges down carefully to guarantee sharp and precise paint lines.
Thanks to its exceptional hold for up to 26 weeks, you can plan your work in multiple phases without needing to remove and reapply the tape between coatings. Removal is effortless and leaves no residue, even after prolonged exposure to Belgian weather conditions. For optimal results, remove the tape at a 45-degree angle whilst the paint is still slightly damp.
Available in five widths (19, 25, 30, 38 and 50 mm), the tesa® 4440 adapts to all your masking needs, from fine lines to large protective areas.

At Pygmalion, we recommend the tesa® 4440 for all your exterior projects requiring long-lasting performance: facade renovations, external carpentry work, or projects with planned interruptions. Its hand-tearability saves valuable time on large jobsites whilst maintaining precision edge lines. For Belgian projects exposed to harsh weather, its 26-week UV resistance offers unparalleled security, even during prolonged rainy periods.
Pro tip: for perfect angles, slightly overlap the tape strips by crossing the ends, then make a sharp cut with a utility knife through both layers. This creates invisible joints, even on complex trim work.
The tesa® Professional 4440 resists UV exposure for up to 26 weeks outdoors without leaving residue. This unique characteristic allows you to plan long-duration jobsites or multiple painting stages spaced over time.
Yes, the tesa® 4440 is suitable for both delicate and rough surfaces. Its acrylic adhesive ensures a firm grip whilst allowing residue-free removal. However, it is recommended to always perform a test on a discreet area first.
The choice depends on your application: widths of 19 mm and 25 mm are suitable for fine lines and trim, 30 mm and 38 mm for medium surfaces and carpentry protection, whilst 50 mm is ideal for large elements or creating wide borders.
Absolutely, the tesa® 4440 is hand-tearable despite its robustness. This property significantly speeds up application on large jobsites whilst maintaining professional precision thanks to its Washi paper backing.
Although specifically designed for outdoors with 26-week UV resistance, the tesa® 4440 can perfectly be used indoors for all masking work requiring precision and clean edges. Its versatility makes it a universal choice for professionals.
