Okay. I don't do many product endorsements. But this one I simply couldn't resist. I wish I could remember how many walls I've painted in my life, and how much time I've spent taping trim. It's really my least favorite part of painting. I lack the patience to waste take the time to put that silly blue tape on my woodwork, around my doors, windows, etc. Especially since EVERY time I peel that junk off my wall there's a messy ridiculous "line" that needs touched up. Most of the time I skip the tape and do my own cutting which sometimes works out, and sometimes doesn't. :) But the last time I was at Ace Hardware (oh yeah, you heard me) I motion-triggered an infomercial telling me about frog tape. Supposedly pretty good stuff. I bit. I bought.
I later painted my hallway (with a faux linen treatment, that I happen to like, btw) and imagine my udder surprise when I peeled the frog tape from my trim and discovered A CLEAN STRAIGHT LINE. Seriously folks. Apparently the frog tape has PaintBlock Technology. It uses the moisture from latex paint to create a perfectly tight seal along the edge of the tape! However it works, I love it. And I think you might, too. Check my before and after pics.
Don't worry. I won't do this often. :)
