Avoid Petroleum Jelly for Masking

petroleum jelly put petroleum jelly on the areas that you don't want to paint like um say for instance a doorknob or um i think i re i saw one there was a picture of a door hinge here's the problem with that okay you can take a and i saw like they had a little brush like an artist brush inside of how old is this petroleum jelly that is a good question i think ever since i think that's been in our bathroom since we've been married i think everybody has a 30 year old thing of course i can't really still make this stuff it's kind of weird it's um it's really i mean my hands are all greasy already it's just all over the place now and so i feel like i'm already contaminated but let's go do a set of cabinets like look if you put this stuff on anything i mean eventually you're gonna have to wipe it off and what if it gets onto now your painted surface but what's going to happen a year from now with wherever that petroleum jelly was and you just wiped it off with a rag it's going to collect dust it's going to collect dirt it's going to just not look very good and i think like chris said the odds of you getting it just perfectly off of those hinges you might as well have just spent all your time masking instead of messing around with just goo just break out some frog tape mask that hinge off with frog tape and toss that give that petroleum jelly back to your wife so she can use it you know um as her makeup remover or whatever she uses it for so i'm not a girl so i'm not crying i don't think that's right is that not what they use it for you know i i don't know i don't know either okay so well let's get on just get away from the petroleum jelly don't use it let's get on to the next hack and um i
