Paint Accessories - Buy 3M & Norton Masking Tape, Painters Tape & Finishing Accessories Online

The quality of a paint job depends as much on the accessories as on the paint. Masking tape that gives crisp edges, drop sheets that protect floors and furniture, and the finishing accessories that prepare and clean up a surface are what separate a neat, professional result from a messy one. At Fixxly, our paint accessories range covers 3M, Norton and Asian Paints - masking and painters tape, and the preparation, protection and finishing accessories that every painting job needs. This guide explains the key accessories, how to use masking tape for sharp lines, and why the right accessories make painting faster, cleaner and better.

What are paint accessories?

Paint accessories are the supporting products used before, during and after painting to prepare surfaces, protect areas, achieve clean results and finish the job. Fixxly stocks 3M masking tape, Norton surface-prep abrasives, and Asian Paints application accessories across this category.

Masking tape and painters tape

Masking tape is the single most important paint accessory. 3M's painters tape is applied along edges - where a wall meets the ceiling, trim, skirting or an adjacent colour - to mask those areas so paint gives a clean, sharp line and does not stray onto surfaces that should stay unpainted.

Other essential paint accessories

Protective sheeting and drop cloths

Drop sheets and protective covers shield floors, furniture and fittings from drips and splashes, saving considerable cleanup.

Surface preparation accessories

Norton's cleaning and sanding accessories ready the wall for paint - a well-prepared surface is essential for a good finish.

How to use masking tape for a professional finish

Sharp paint lines are the hallmark of a good job, and masking tape technique is the secret. Apply 3M's painters tape to a clean, dry surface, pressing the edge down firmly along its whole length so paint cannot bleed underneath.

How accessories determine the neatness of a paint job

The quality of a paint job depends as much on the accessories as on the paint itself. Good 3M and Norton accessories are inexpensive relative to the paint and the labour, yet they have an outsized effect on the neatness and speed of the result.
