Questions about EDGE GOLD

Is EDGE GOLD a gold tape?

Yes. EDGE GOLD is a gold washi masking tape: 90 µm thin (total thickness including adhesive) with 1.5 N/cm adhesion to steel.

Which surfaces does EDGE GOLD stick to?

According to the data sheet, smooth surfaces: glass and glass profiles, smooth metal such as aluminium and stainless steel, plastic (PVC, door frames), lacquer, smooth and non-woven wallpaper, fine and roller-textured plaster and treated wood.

What is EDGE GOLD not suitable for?

According to the data sheet, not for natural or artificial stone, galvanised metal, copper and anodised metal, lead and lead paint, PVC older than four years, or wet or greasy surfaces.

Can I use EDGE GOLD outdoors?

Yes. EDGE GOLD is made for indoor and outdoor use and is UV-resistant for up to 16 weeks according to the data sheet (actual adhesion time depends on surface, weather, paint and temperature). For coarse render, facades and concrete, use EDGE RED.

How long can EDGE GOLD stay on?

Remove BRAUJE right after the last coat, while the paint is still wet – that gives the cleanest edge. The UV resistance (EDGE GOLD and EDGE RED up to 16 weeks outdoors, EDGE VIOLET indoor only) tells you how long the tape withstands sunlight – not how long it can still be removed cleanly afterwards.

For comparison: manufacturers of washi masking tapes state periods from a few days to several weeks for clean removal, depending on the tape and use (manufacturers’ information, as of October 2026, without guarantee). There is no BRAUJE measurement for this yet.

Which width should I use for what?

According to the product data sheet: 19 mm for detail work and decorative mouldings, 25 mm for windows and glazing beads, 30 mm for wall-to-ceiling lines, 38 mm for skirting boards and door frames, 50 mm for large areas. Every roll is 50 m long.

Does EDGE GOLD work on woodchip wallpaper?

With preparation: first paint a thin coat of the base colour along the tape edge and do an adhesion test in an inconspicuous spot. That is what the data sheet says for woodchip and other critical surfaces.

Can I mask aluminium window frames?

Smooth aluminium yes, anodised aluminium no. The data sheet recommends EDGE GOLD for smooth metal such as aluminium and stainless steel, but not for anodised metal. If in doubt, test in an inconspicuous spot first.

How much heat can EDGE GOLD take?

Up to approx. 100 °C for 20 minutes according to the data sheet (test method ATST008). For coatings at higher temperatures use EDGE RED: up to approx. 150 °C for 60 minutes.

How should I store EDGE GOLD?

At 18 to 21 °C, at no more than 65 % relative humidity, out of direct sunlight and with no weight on the rolls. In its original packaging EDGE GOLD keeps for up to 12 months according to the data sheet.
