Getting sharp lines and great results when you use masking tape on your paint project is do-able. You just need to be aware of a few things. I'm Dan Hansen and this is a minute at RepcoLite Paints sponsored by Benjamin Moore.

For example, you need to start by choosing the right tape. Different tapes do different things and excel in different areas.

For example, safe release or delicate surface tapes are ideal when taping over newly applied paint or even wallpaper. They're made to release from those surfaces without causing damage.

Frog Tape--another example--it isn't just a brand name that costs more. Frog Tape is different from other tapes. It's coated with a material that instantly seals the edges when it comes in contact with the water in waterbased paint, helping you achieve very sharp lines.

Bottom line: There are different tapes for a reason. Each one can be said to do something slightly different and one or two are most likely going to be better for a given project than the others. Ask about them at the store and choose the right one! I'm Dan Hansen and that's a minute at RepcoLite.
