It Leaps From Paper To Walls

This last review of mine will focus on, what perhaps, I will call the watercolor effect. I say this in terms of working in watercolor on paper. Lines or edges are hard to get, especially with the unintentional bleeding of colors. FrogTape can be used in place of the usual tapes to hold down the paper itself. Then, if lightly placed and positioned, it can be used to get certain effects.
In terms of walls within a building, it maintains the same idea. A professional muralist may be skilled to have their own techniques, but homeowners may also want more than the plain wall. Using tape, you can section off selected areas into color blocks, as well as try to shape other areas. Everything has to be pretested before making any final marks.
If I had my way, I could use a darker shade of green and a brown for my other uses. P.S. , I love to experiment, but I am still wondering where the yellow type is sold. I have no way to compare the two types.
Just removed Frog Tape Multi Surface after painting my daughters room. WOW! The project required a lot of fine lines beyond the normal ceiling and moulding taping. The lines were perfect! The only down side was that I didnt buy enough and I ran out with a few areas to do. I had some other tape from past projects and used that to finish up. Talk about night and day. Areas bled through and the tape didn't even stick at points. Had i known the difference, I would have taken the time and gone out to buy another roll of Frog Tape. I will never use another type of painting tape for all my painting projects in the future. GREAT PRODUCT!
Our painting business has switched from using blue painter's tape to Frog Tape. Most of our work is high-end interior custom painting and keeping paint off what its supposed to is crucial. We made the switch because using blue tape without hard burnishing onto trim always left some bleeding. With Frog Tape we are able to firmly tape our project and have zero bleeding issues to clean up after the paint project. The higher cost of tape is minimal compared to the price of labor and distress.
Usually I just "cut" the edges, but this time I had to paint above plastic coving. Cutting just didn't cut it! Running a line of Frog Tape Multi-Surface made simple work of a task that doesn't always appeal to me. Now, if I could just win a Mustang or Econoline van! Or the lottery-just about as much chance. Good thing that Frog Tape is easy to use!
I have used this product many times, and always recommend it to any friend planning a painting product. The absoulute best masking tape ever! It makes any paint job soooo much easyer. Working around the trim is a breeze with frog tape. Easy to apply and easy to remove.
