Hi everyone.
I dunno if this is original or not but I hit on this idea to remove masking tape marks!
We all had tape touch it's self at the awkward moment while masking and know what a bugger it is to separate!
Well, I had some tape marks on a job I'm doing and it's gem sapphire over black ..... so a non destructive method was needed to remove the marks!
Ping!!!! The light bulb came on!!!!! I took some fresh tape, wrapped it around my fingers (backwards, sticky side out) and dabbed at the marks.
OK, I had to dab a few times but the glue on the tape sticks to the glue which the marks are!
Worked for me so I thought it worth sharing
Both of these picture show the marks left by the masking tape.
Wrap new masking tape around your fingers so the sticky side is out.
Dab over the tape mark until it is pulled off by the new tape. Simply move to a new place on the new tape when the stickiness weakens. (NOTE: Make sure you don't mark the paint with your thumb nail .... I learned that the hard way !)
There you go! tape mark gone
Hope this helps someone
