3M Hand-Masker 12-Inch Film Blade, FB12, for use with 3M Hand-Masker M3000 Tool

This is by far one of the best tools I think I've ever bought! Definitely worth the couple extra dollars for the stability. And the straight cuts.. makes the job so much faster! What are you waiting for??

This is a great improvement to the masker when cutting film. Straight and easy to cut.

I started with the blade that you can buy at the local big box store. That thing was useless! It flexed way too much so cutting plastic with it one handed was rage inducing! I hold the plastic to the wall with one hand and so only had one hand available to hold the masking tool. The basic blade flexes WAY too much to work one handed.So I returned that and ordered this one. That was the way to go! Since this one is anchored in 2 places it actually works. I am still not very proficient with it, but no more swear-fests when trying to use it.Frankly, 3M should stop selling the other version and only sell this one. It's the same price and this one works. The other one only hurts their reputation.

Okay this thing performs great I love it really sharp cuts the film way better than the standard one that it comes with but holy crap it's expensive it's kind of worth it I would buy it again but I'm angry that this stupid thing cost so much.

My husband is a contractor and he loves this. When he’s on a ladder needing to pull out plastic, or paper the locking device holds the paper/plastic on the masking device; so it cuts straight every time with no waste. Nor loss time trying to untangle a mess from paper/plastic coming unraveled. This should come standard on any handmasker.

So convenient and flows easily along and space.

03-20-2024The 3M M3000 works OK with the FB12-SC paper holder. Without it, it’s more difficult to get a clean paper cutting action. Amaz and HD sell the FB12, which is often mislabeled as an FB12-SC. Amaz sent me the wrong product < twice >.I finally got all the correct parts from PaintersSolutions dot com. The FB12-SC includes a yellow plastic bar assembly that holds the paper. Other reviewers have posted pictures here. The FB12 does not include the bar assembly, you want the FB12-SC.3M recommends that you leave on the plastic blade guard, while others remove it to get a cleaner paper cut. After an unnecessary amount of fiddling, the hand-masker works. The basic design idea is good; getting it working shouldn’t have to be this involved.

Very nice so far !
