3M Blue Tape

Low tack blue tape. This special masking tape is excellent for assembling veneer seams, decorative patterns and marquetry. It is used to temporarily pull together and hold the seams of the veneer together on the 'glue face' of the veneer so one can apply the gum tape onto the opposite 'show face', or exposed side of the veneer on the panel. It will not leave a residue, tear fibers or be difficult to remove, provided that it is not left out in the sun, exposed to heat, or pressed on with excessive force as in a veneer press. The 3/4" tape has the right amount of elasticity to stretch over a seam and 'draw' the joint together, and the 3"wide tape is ideal for assembling marquetry or decorative veneer work.  It is removed from the 'glue face' after the gum tape has dried (about 15 to 30 minutes).  It cannot be used to hold the veneer together during the final pressing (with glue) onto the core because it will be very difficult to remove from the finished veneer panel.
