Frog Tape?

[hamz9561]

Has any tried this yet? I'm masking my current project with it and was wondering about other's results.

Never heard of it. Anytime I have used tape I always used blue painters tape.

Isn't the frog tape the one that has that adhesive that gels to seal edges i would be worried about residue left behind.Just a thought.

If that's what it does, I would be worried about residue as well.

Frog tape? Wasn't it lunch for DUCK tape?
Make sure it's intended as a masking tape rather than something permanent. I would do a test with it before putting it to use on a project.

It is a painter's tape.

Looking at that video it looks like any kind of moisture will cause the compound to gel. I don't have any problems with regular blue painters tape.

I'll definitely try a roll. I always use the 1/8 Tamiya plastic tape on the edge since it's so smooth and flat. Then I mask next to that.

I have used frog tape for indoor house painting, worked very well compared to blue. Didnt have to press the sides down a bunch to keep it from seeping. BUT I would be worried about adhesive being left behind on lexan, might now even be visible until you painted over it.

That's the reason I use the thin plastic tape first. On a wall, a tiny bit of bleed is not noticeable, but on a small part, viewed close up, it's a major issue.
