Silver gaffers tape is a matte cloth tape with a silver metallic backing, the color of aluminum alloy doors and windows. This silver backing gives it unique reflective properties, making it a popular choice for certain applications in the film, television, and theater industries.
Matt silver gaffers tape consists of a PE-coated 80-mesh fabric backing coated with a pressure-sensitive natural rubber adhesive. The combination between the very matte surface of the backing makes it the ideal tape for subtle applications on stages. Gaffers tape is designed with a matte finish to prevent it from reflecting light, which is essential in production environments to avoid unwanted reflections and glare that could affect lighting and camera work.
