Thanks for the tip. I tried this today (using regular blue tape) and it worked great. I wish I’d seen this sooner before I’d already done other rooms with bad results.
That’s awesome to hear. It’s a technique that I have used for many years and have had great success. I’m glad I thought to put it on My UA-cam channel as it seems to have helped a lot. Thank you for sharing your results using this method. I’m so grateful.
same
After applying the frog tape, take a wet paper towel and wipe the edge. This activates something in the adhesive causing it to swell, creating a tight seal. Great results!
Thanks for watching and commenting. I’ll try that next time i use it. Great tip. Thanks.
You must’ve watched my video! 👍
@@chicagohandyman did you make a video with this same technique?
The paint activates it..that’s enough to wet it
Great job...wish you would have video of applying tape that’s the important step
Thank you and You’re right. I do have one. It’s however with the luxury vinyl floor series. Check it out. It’s got the painting of base and applying of the tape. I think it’s the 2 to last video in the series.
Mary it’s the series - luxury vinyl floor remodel finale episode . Let me know if you have any questions.
Hey just curious. Did you check out the video with the installation of the tape?
Impressive. A video of you applying the tape would be awesome.
I agree. But it was an afterthought. I decided to make the video as I was removing the tape. I’ll be installing more soon and I’ll video the process for you. Please subscribe and check it out. I’m just starting out so any ideas or comments are greatly appreciated. So thank you so much.
Hey you know your idea was brilliant. I’m going to do a video of me installing the tape. I’ll put it up tomorrow. Then you.
Did you check out my series on luxury vinyl flooring? It has the application of the tape as well as painting them. Just thought you’d like to know.
David, Thank you for sharing. I love Frog Tape. More expensive, but works great. I am installing LV floors throughout my Florida home in January. I was suppose to install in October, but when the material arrived many boxes were damaged. Had to return the entire shipment. Of course the flooring was on backorder. It arrived last week. Of course I can’t get back to Florida until late January. I repainted walls and trim in October. I also put on two coats of finish paint on new quarter round before installing it in January. I’m hoping it doesn’t all warp and is still usable. What flooring did you install it looks similar to ours.
Hi Bob. Thanks so much for watching and commenting. That’s awesome. We used procore plus luxury vinyl planks from Lowe’s. It was very nice. But check out my video on what it does to your saw blades. I did a whole series on every aspect of the remodel process. You should check them out. Very detailed. It sounds like you’ve had a rough time with your material and I wish you the best of luck. Keep in mind that when you purchase your flooring make sure it’s all from the same run. It will have a run date on packing box. Just to make sure colors are the same. Let me know if you need anything else. Thanks again.
Very informative. Thanks! Your cut line looks amazing!
Thanks so much!
"luxury vinyl flooring" I'm dying. "Luxury government cheese"
Where is the info on HOW TO “APPLY” THE TAPE??
I can pull the tape up... THANK YOU MUCH!! 👍🏼👍🏼
Hey thanks for watching. At the end of the video, there is a link to the video where I actually apply tape and paint base moulding. Check it out. Let me know.
Great video, super helpful
Glad to hear. Hopefully it helped you. Let me know if you have any more questions.
Wow, nice job. Wish I could have watched you put the frog tape on on the 1/4 round. How did you get it so straight??!!??
Thank you for the nice comments. Actually I also have a video on prepping the base and shoe for paint. ua-cam.com/video/2i_4JGdVw1s/v-deo.html. Here is the link for it. I show everything from filling holes in base and shoe and caulking as well as putting the tape on. I hope you like it.
I lay tape down under the shoe molding before installing and then paint and use a blade and cut the tape with no paint in the floor
Thanks for sharing the tip. I appreciate it.
But...great technique thanks
What are your thoughts on using a long putty knife along the base as you paint? I assume that doesn’t work as well?
I’d say for sure it’s not a good idea. You can use a wallpaper blade to keep paint off carpet but that’s not good for wood floor. Wood flooring is much harder cause you see everything. So it needs to be very well done to look good. Tape is best. Done this way you’ll see is great. Did you see video link at end for when I actually applied the tape and painted? It’s a very good in-depth video.
@@davidbryanwoodworksandmore my floor guy said not to use any kind of tape on the hardwood floors which is why I’m concerned. Maybe the frog tape sensitive would be ok?
@@seant1435 did you just have the wood floors stained? Maybe it’s too early to use tape on them. If that’s the case I’d wait a bit before you put tape on them. Mostly you’ll be securing to shoe moulding and then to floor. But use blue 3m or frog delicate tape on the floor close to the base shoe to protect the flooring. then use the regular frog tape on the base shoe and it will also go on top of the other tape you put down to get the clean line. You really can’t mess up wood floors with any tape unless it’s just been finished. So use delicate tape like I suggested where it touches flooring just to be safe. But definitely wait a few days for clear coats to dry before.
@@davidbryanwoodworksandmore I can’t thank you enough for your speedy responses! Yes, I did just have the floors refinished a few weeks ago.
@@seant1435 you’re welcome. Yes I’d use delicate on the floor and then use regular frog tape to go over it where it goes onto the moulding. Try not to leave the tape on the floor longer than necessary to paint.
whats the name of the flooring? trim looks great!
Thanks Mathew. The flooring I believe is in the description. It may be on the video that I link from this one where I totally show how I install the tape and prep and paint all the base trim. But here It is. From lowes warm honey oak procore luxury vinyl. It’s some crazy hard stuff to cut. Destroys the normal blades. As I show on another video.
But its leaving a sharp line behind because you waited for it to dry. So, why didn’t you remove it when the paint was wet as recommended?
The paint doesn’t have to be dry when you remove the tape. Obviously if you have to make two coats and you’re painting a lot, the paint will always be dry when you’re done. Plus wet paint on tape is a mess anyways. I prefer to take off when dry just for those reasons. The line isn’t visible so close to
The floor. But if you feel you can do a better job than this, by all means post a video to show us how. Thanks.
Starts around 6:00
Thanks for watching. I hope you saw the link to the video that I actually install the tape and paint the trim. It’s great.
@@davidbryanwoodworksandmore I did after reading your reply. Thanks!
I hope you saw my video on how to get crisp lines between the top of the baseboard and wall. 😉
I learned something from you. I hope you learn something from me.
@@chicagohandyman no but I’ll check your video out. Thank you for watching.
Paint before you install then touchup caulk and spackle
Then what? Are you saying that you’ll be done at that point? This will leave a terrible looking job. Either way you must paint after installation to get best results. For great results, There is no getting around it. Thanks for watching. Try it this way next time and you’ll see what it looks like. You can’t hide a bad paint job.
I considered painting the trim before installing. After painting qtr round under kitchen cabinets, I got a heck of a pain in the neck. Then just spackle and touch up paint, right? Any pitfalls Im not thinking of?
Try removing the tape b4 the paint drys so you don’t peel some of the new paint
Thanks for watching. I find that while that method may work, although you risk the wet paint hitting something like flooring or walls, when your finished painting large areas, paint is dry already. So it’s no practical to do this. It’s better to wait till it’s completely dry. I’ve not had problems with paint pulling off. Just take care when pulling off tape and you won’t either. Provided you properly cleaned your moulding before painting. Otherwise paint won’t adhere well.
Always paint before you install.
With all do respect, that’s not going to give you results I’m looking for. Sorry. Watch my follow up video at end of this video.
Paint line looks great but where are the returns on the shoe ?!?? That is a shame to spend all that time and not return them
Thanks for watching. No returns are a Personal preference. I don’t like the way returns look on shoe moulding only. So I use an angle cut on them instead. I like the look better.
It kinda mean of you to show the results but not demonstrate the tape application. Why did you do that?
Sorry about that. I actually have the video where I showed the whole process linked to this video. Check out the end of this video for the link.
You missed a spot 😂
Thanks for watching. Hope you liked the video.
