Tack rags help ensure that your surface is free of imperfections before being coated. At LAKGRUPPEN, we supply a careful selection of tack rags that are used by many professionals around the world.

What use is tack rags

tack rag is a specialized type of wiping cloth that is treated with a tacky material. It is designed to remove loose particles of dust, dirt, and lint that would contaminate a surface that is to be painted, coated, laminated, photo-etched, or otherwise finished.

How to use a tack rag

Tack cloth is the best option for removing dust and sanding residues before painting, staining, or applying any other coating to a surface.

Before using tack cloth, make sure you wear disposable nitrile gloves so that the tacky residue doesn’t stick to your hands and keep the surface dust-free.

To properly use a tack rag, use very light pressure and wipe down one small area at a time. Pressing too hard with the cloth will cause the very sticky residue to transfer to the surface you’re working on, essentially defeating the purpose of this cleaning step.
