Tips for using the right tape

  1. As a painters job requires a lot of preparation we recommend to use good quality painter tools. Also in tape there is a great variety in quality. Please ask your retailer for advice.
  2. Use the right tape for the right purpose. If tape will be exposed to direct sunlight use tape that is sunlight-resistant and that won’t stick on the surface.
  3. Tape based on washi paper is used when you really want to reach extreme sharp lines.
  4. Before masking the tape the surface must be clean dry and dust-free so tape will stick properly.
  5. If you intend to remove tape take the end of the tape and tear the tape at an angle of 90 degrees.
  6. If you intend to remove tape after more than a week there is special tape available for that purpose.
  7. Continuous developments in the quality of tape helps to create a perfect result. When applied correctly the tape edges will be pressed against the surface so that sharp painting lines can be achieved.
