ABSTRACT:
A manually operable tape dispenser/applicator device is provided for applying pressure sensitive adhesive masking tape to a portion of the surface of an automobile body fascia which comprises a plurality of parallel grooves. The device comprises a rigid support frame on which are mounted: a manual grip or handle for pulling the device along a path; a spindle for rotatably supporting a roll of tape; a rotatable resilient pressure roll around which tape from the roll is reeved and which presses the tape against the grooved portion of the surface to be masked; a spring-biased adjustably movable plate for holding the tape against the pressure roll and to prevent backlash when the tape is cut; a tape cut-off blade; a spring-biased movable blade guard; a guide member including a plurality of (four) spaced-apart groove-engaging projections engageable with certain grooves for guiding the device and tape dispensed therefrom along a path parallel to the grooves; and a guide adjustment mechanism for adjustably positioning the guide member and the projections relative to the lateral edges of the tape.
