I’ve never heard of this technique before. I like the idea of pulling the tape as you’re painting. If something goes wrong, you see it right away. There’s nothing worse than getting your whole painting job done, letting it dry and pulling off the tape only to find a bleeding mess on your mounding.

Nice video, nice tip. I'm not a pro painter by no means and I get pretty good results just using tape.. Trick is to cut in with your brush with almost no paint on the brush. Very lightly paint the wall where it meets the tape using the smallest amount of paint possible. Once it's just starting to dry, do a more substantial cut in with more paint on your brush.... You see, the initial very very light coat seals the second heavy coat from bleeding and making a mess. Hope this trick can work for you guys as well! Have fun painting....while I drink sum beers. Cheers 🥂

@jakefriesenjake 4 ай бұрын

@@StevenBanks123 also, instead of paint, you can use your finger and a bit of clear, paintable silicone dap. Then paint it normally. The silicone seals it from bleeding under the tape. Also, let's say that you just painted your walls red. Now you want to paint the trim white. Tape off the red walls, but instead of going with white first, use red. A small amount of red on your brush. This way, if it had any tendency to bleed at all, it would be bleeding the same color under the tape! Which means it didn't bleed lol. Now paint you white. Depending on the previous color, it might take more coats of white, so maybe in that situation use clear, paintable silicone first. Cheers!

This worked great for me! I used the paint in place of the clear latex caulk. Painted the wall with blue, taped my line, burnished the tape with the edge of a paint stick to get it into the textured crevices, painted/stippled back over the tape with that same blue to make the paint bleed under, let it dry, then painted over with my gray. When I lifted the tape, there was mostly a fine clean line! Nothing I can't fix with a q-tip, although the caulk would be faster overall if I had it on hand. Thanks again for sharing your wisdom!

Take pictures BEFORE you tape with your smart phone....If the customer complains, you have proof of the state of the trim before you began painting....We are of the habit now to take pictures of everything before we paint.....I remodel a lot...We always take picture now before we start...Gives us a record of what it looked like before we began....People tend to forget as the remodel progresses....A great perk from smart phone technology...

This has almost always given me a straight line, with even dollar store tape!

I have a bottle of some stuff I bought about 20 years ago at the Sherwin Williams store down in the garage. Without looking, I don't recall the product name. It's purpose is to remove old latex paint drips from anything it dries on. I believe it is carbontetrachloride as as that is what it smells like. I've used it occasionally to remove paint drips, splatters, and imperfections from baseboard heaters, trim and the floor.

Hey buddy, good info. Stop messing around with caulking and just use good tape with edge block and a whizz roller to cut in. No brush, except maybe for a few tight corner areas, just use the end of the whizz roller and roll. It doesn't bleed under the tape like a brush would and also you can roll around all your trim instead of cut with a brush so you get less distinct texture difference between brush and roller. Also, always use methyl hydrate first to go around and clean off any old paint before starting, then the new job looks that much better.

@GreatWhiteNiko 7 жыл бұрын

Cool tip but the reality of most houses is that the top baseboard edge has both dust and oils. You need to first wipe off all the dirt. Which is a job by itself. Only after that you can tape. And if you have to run caulk over the tape then this makes 3 passes total - cleaning, taping, caulking. Not to mention that the tape needs to be pulled as soon as possible because the caulk starts to set very fast. Fastest option - clean the baseboards and tape right before you paint + pull tape immediately + wipe off any small bleed throughs immediately.
