Best Masking Tapes for Interior Painting | Why FrogTape Is a Game-Changer for New Construction

What happens here

The presenter highlights FrogTape Blue (Pro Grade Painter's Tape) as his primary choice for the current new construction project. This tape features PaintBlock Technology, which causes the edges to swell and seal when in contact with liquid, preventing paint bleed and creating sharp lines. It offers a longer 14-day release time compared to the orange tape, making it suitable for situations where masking needs to remain in place for longer. He typically keeps 1-inch, 1.5-inch, and 2-inch widths on hand, using the 1.5-inch for tacking plastic around windows and door jambs.
