Differences Between Washi Tape and PET Tape:
Noise Effect:PET tape has a slightly noticeable noise effect, while Washi tape has less noise and provides a smoother visual experience when used.
Transparency:
PET tape is transparent in areas without prints, making it more convenient for collage work and cutting, especially for beginners. Washi tape, on the other hand, is opaque, making it suitable for situations where a concealment effect is desired.
Light Transmittance:
PET tape with white ink printing does not easily transmit light, ensuring that the patterns remain clear without light bleed-through.
Water Resistance:
PET tape has a certain degree of water resistance, making it suitable for situations requiring some water-proofing. Washi tape does not have water resistance, so care should be taken to avoid exposure to moisture.
Special Oil Effect:
PET tape has a more vibrant and modern special oil effect, while Washi tape's special oil effect is more layered, offering a vintage and delicate feel.
Special Material Tapes:
PET tapes come in a variety of unique materials such as laser, pearlescent, and shell gloss effects, providing a more aesthetically pleasing and refined look.
Important Notes Before Purchasing:
Color Difference:
Due to factors such as monitor settings and photography environment, the actual product may differ slightly in color from the images. Please refer to the actual product for the final color.
Tape Sealing and Patterns:
There may be slight imperfections at the sealing point of the tape, such as uneven cuts, incomplete patterns, or minimal adhesive residue. These are normal occurrences.
Special Oil Misalignment:
There may be slight misalignment (within 1mm) in special oil printing. Please be aware of this.
Material Differences:
Washi tape is a lightweight, semi-transparent paper material with a slight yellowish tint, not pure white. PET tape, in contrast, is similar to transparent nylon and has a more durable feel.
Pattern Cutting:
You will need to cut the patterns from the tape yourself. Please ensure accurate cutting when using the tape.
