Any latex paint can lift off the surface
if you try to remove the tape before
the paint is thoroughly dry (see paint
manufacturer dry times on can).
For clean removal, use a flexible
putty knife or 5-in-1 tool and score
along the edge of the tape. This will
help break the paint bond between
the wall and tape edge.
Taking your time, lift up the painter’s
tape at a 45 degree angle.
You’ll get a sharp, clean line and a
professional looking paint job!
A little patience and
preparation will help you
avoid peeling away paint
when you take off your
painter’s tape.
Importance of Scoring
Prevent paint bleeding on
slightly textured surfaces
using this simple technique.
When paint is dry (approximately
24 hours), score the tape.
Peel off painter’s tape at an angle,
revealing a perfect accent wall with
super sharp paint lines.

the edge of the wall you will not be

ready to paint your accent wall.
