Every day we receive many questions like this:<\/p>

\u201cI am renovating an old house, and I’ve found very susceptible to pulling up the old paint when I’m masking on it for paint repairs. I\u2019m currently using a paper tape for masking. Is there a lower tack tape or other tricks to help prevent pulling paint when removing the masking?\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>

Do you find yourself in these words? Here\u2019s the suggestion we give to professionals who find themselves with this need.<\/p>

You only need a very good low tack masking tape<\/h2>

The answer is simple: to prevent pulling up paint you need a tape with a lighter adhesion<\/strong>. This doesn\u2019t mean that you\u2019ll get a worse performance, because sometimes the less tacky tapes actually stick better<\/strong>!<\/p>

Yes, paper tape can be ok for regular paint jobs, but if you are looking for a professional finish on delicate surfaces, we highly recommend you to choose a masking tape with low tack adhesion<\/strong>, which is compatible with most types of paint and adapts to multiple and irregular surfaces.<\/p>

This way, you are sure to achieve an easy and clean removal without leaving adhesive residue<\/strong> on the application surface, even on extra delicate or freshly painted surfaces<\/strong>.<\/p>

This kind of masking tape also works very well on wallpapers<\/strong> and in any project where low tape adhesion and no surface damage is a must.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
