another tip is to run a wet rag over the frog tape and let the glue swell first before painting

After trim is painted I then tape and run a light coat of trim paint over tape and that seals. Then two coats of wall paint. Works great!

@billhoffman171 Жыл бұрын

Correct answer, seal the void with the same color. This is how we do it.

Any printable caulking will work. GE makes a very good product. The cheapest paintable caulking is the least best to use.The trick here is you wipe most of it off and rub the tape edge down extra well. But if you add the caulking price to the the tape you might as well buy the more expensive frog tape green. Some instances you may want to add the caulk to taped areas like tile grout. Then the price is worth doing the job right. Also for small areas you can use two layers of the best tape. I can't say I have ever needed more than one layer of frog green to do the job. But in the good old days we'd just double layer the tape.

I merely brush on a little "deep base", untinted paint to seal the edge of the tape. clear paint tends to leave less of a ridge at the edge of the tape, which might show.

@Jventuring Жыл бұрын

I do one super light coat just to seal the tape edge. Let dry Then go over with 2 normal coats. Similar to what he is doing here.

@gazz50 8 ай бұрын

I use this method it works well but sometimes the paint dries darker on the caulk and spoils the job.

@dchall8 Жыл бұрын

You could also paint white first against the tape so the bleeding looks white. Color coat doesn't bleed because the white already filled the void.

How long can you wait to pull the tape tho? If you let the caulk and the paint fully dry will it tear the paint when you pull the tape?

How long is the tape workable if caulked? IE, if I'm spraying two coats of finish color, is it going to peel the paint if I don't remove and retape between coats?

@Idahopainter Жыл бұрын

You have to pull it before the caulking and paint dry

Ok now you're giving away the trade secrets lol. I use this when customers pick different colors on curved ceiling to wall or where curved wall corners meet. The problem is customers watch vids like yours and then try to micro manage what we're doing like they're experts. But I like the vids.

That’s a cool trick brother, however I always end up with jobs that don’t allow for the time to call my tape. Is there another method that would do similar except faster, also when I pull up my tape it sticks and leaves little pieces Al over the place. Is there a method to stop that as well

I tried caulking the tape and when I removed the tape while the paint was wet it left a ridge where the edge of the tape was. Too much Caulk?

You need to remove all the caulking

@sicknsaneofficial8646 3 ай бұрын

You know. I'll admit it's not a terrible idea as long as it doesn't show through the paint. However it seems like a redundant step and an extra expense. Especially when taping off entire ceiling/wall seams /Trim etc
