Tips to save time and money on your next paint job

A hand holds a yellow spong washing a wall prior to painting. A red bucket filled with water and soap sits on the floor next to the wall.

Clean Surface and Let Dry

Clean the surface prior to taping and painting with a mild detergent solution and sponge. Rinse the sponge often. Make sure the surface is dry before you apply the tape.

Tape in 1-2 Foot Sections

Tape any areas on your surface you want to keep paint-free. For best results, tear off 1-2 foot lengths of tape for better control and better adhesion to the surface.

Burnish Tape's Edge

Burnish the tape's edge with a plastic tool, like a putty knife or credit card, to ensure the tape is completely flush with the surface to avoid paint bleed.

Remove Tape When Paint is Wet

For best results, remove the tape as soon as you're done painting, making sure to pull slowly at a 45-degree angle. If the paint has dried, score along the painted edge of the tape to avoid pulling back any paint as you remove the tape.
