FROG TAPE VS PAINTERS TAPE: IS IT WORTH THE MONEY? FROG TAPE VS PAINTERS TAPE: IS IT WORTH THE MONEY?

FrogTape® Delicate Surface is a premium, light adhesion painter’s masking tape that helps you achieve crisp, clean paint lines and saves time and money by eliminating the need for touch-ups. Apply your tape to the surface. For experienced painters, unroll the tape in one long section and keep the roll flat against the wall. For less experienced painters, apply the tape in shorter sections to avoid stretching the tape. Once you’ve cleaned and dried your painting surface and masked the area, make sure to eliminate any gaps along the tape edge that may occur due to light texture, bumps on the surface or uneven application. After painting, remove the tape slowly at a 45-degree angle while the paint is still wet. Designed specifically with small spaces in mind, FrogTape™ Drop Cloth Pads make it easy to protect your floors and surfaces when painting. Drips and spills are absorbed into the pad without leaking through to the floor below.

Recommended for use on finished wood, fresh paint (dry to the touch), coated wallpaper, veneer, laminate, vinyl and drywall (primed only) Bought the more expensive yellow "delicate surface" tape to mask an emulsioned wall prior to painting rails, frames, skirting. Did the test on a smaller area - perfect! Masked up, painted a larger area, removed as advised - it took off most of the paint underneath leaving me a big repair job. Crap!! If you can't trust the test what do you do. Clearly you can't test it all - that wouldn't be a test that'd be doing the job!! Ironically this is the first time I've ever used FrogTape and, even more annoyingly, the first time I've ever masked to paint rails, frames etc, relying instead on a good brush, care and patience. Never again!!
