Great overview of paint tape types - and entertaining to boot
Tape spec is the most commonly used one here in NZ. I’d say it’s right up there with frog tape. They have a version that says it lasts up to 60 days as well. Idk what they use in it, it’s not the same as the paint block thing frog tape has, but it still get you very sharp lines. Definitely worth trying out.
When we mask to painted ceilings we like to use the Yellow Frog Tape, it's a more gentle adhesive. It won't tear the ceiling (usually) especially freshly painted surfaces since we do mostly new construction.

I didn't know about frog tape.ive used it before but didn't know it had that special feature. Very cool vid ty!
I’ll put those in my van thankyou and I probably get some from your store thanks
Absolutely fantastic video very nicely done my friend
Excellent!
I just started using super gentle purple tape (the new blue) that is awesome for all Kinds of scenarios might try to find some production tape ive been using IPG for that and for the last year it has been giving issues in certain batches . I'm going to ask my paint store about that orange tape.
Have you tested with Yellow Frog Tape (for Delicate Surfaces)?
Sherwin Williams store rep suggested using yellow tape on recently painted surfaces to avoid peeling. Basically, wait at least 24 hours for the paint to dry. Rated for 60 hours of hold time.
I use it, especially with painting two different colors on either side of a rounded corners. It does work well using it over fresh paint...it’s super super thin and delicate.
Very helpful! Is the production tape similar to gaffer tape?
TFS! Great segment! 👍👍👍👍👍✌️❤️
Poles or a pop up tent to booth it. I try hard not to tape to ceilings anymore.
I love your commercials!
Thanks. Very useful info👍👍👍
Frog tape is the worth its weight in gold. It saves so much time and money in the long run. SPEND THE MONEY
Thanks...appreciate your recommendations.
Chris, Have you ever used the Sandpaper trick on a stippled ceiling or flat ceiling. To get a crisp paint line edge. An old painter showed me that trick years ago.
So what's the trick BZ
jacq melrae Take a piece of 8x10 sandpaper and double fold it. Creating a 4x5 square. Now run that edge of the paper on the ceiling where it meets the wall 90. It creates a small line crevice that holds the paint on a sharp edge when you trim with your brush.
I’m a drywaller in Michigan and always sand a groove in textured ceilings for the painters. Any good drywaller will have done that for u already.
@@jimmylarge1148 I was taught that about 20 yrs ago by an saged old expert painter. Been doin that since. One of the best painting tips I pass onto customers that do their own painting
Ecselente video amigo grasias por tus consejos
Thanks Again.PAINT LIFE👍
You bet!
Is the painters mate poly hanging the same as Shurtape DS 154? You had a past vid using it for spray booths. Thanks!
For production, obviously keeping costs down is so important because you just fly through production tape. For personal preference as a business owner, how do you rate 3M 2020 vs 3M 2090 vs the orange Shur-Tape? I recently used 2090 to mask floors, windows, and door glass in a whole house job, and loved the performance but wondered if the orange ShurTape or 2020 would have performed just as well for a fraction of the cost. Input on that topic would be much appreciated!
Chris, what do you think of the yellow frog tape?
Thank you so much for doing this.
Chris, this video is really useful! Thanks?
Good job! Very informative 👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you!
You're welcome!
When i was a apprentice once had to mask up these alloy windows with the white tape and it stuck like s--t to a blanket after a couple of weeks.
Is that shirt you are wearing in your merch?
Wow, I bet my standard blond masking tape could last longer if put in a container like 🐸 tape, to extend shelf life. 😉
What does he mean by tape "splintering"?
Put the delicate frog tap on an oak floor when painting baseboards with white oil enamel. Tape bled under the edges. Frog tape says solvent based paints cause an issue with blocking agent. Any suggestions about what type of tape to use for this application?
I use damp cotton rag just around my finger and run around paint edge it activates the seal. Let it dry then test enamel. It should work.
@jong4939 Thank you for the suggestion. We tried that, but it still came underneath the tape. Guess it's different with oil based products. There's a product test video for you to try. 😊
Sheesh, I use 3m blue for everything. From cutting in to mufflers repairs. Have I been doing it wrong?

Tried to purchase from your store. Elected PayPal under ‘Express Checkout’ options. When redirected from PayPal I couldn’t go forward because your system was pumping me for all of the shipping and phone number and email data that should’ve been supplied by PayPal for ‘ExpressCheck’ out. Had to bail. Sorry.

Just touch up the cieling?
Correct
Yellow 🐸 tape works much better than green and blue
Don’t waste your money on the orange tape sold by SW. maybe just for exterior paints but never for interior. Bought a case, used 5 gave the rest away 🤷🏻♂️
