CAULKING Your Tape Actually Works! FrogTape Tips.

What happens here

The presenter applies a very small, thin bead of clear caulking along the top edge of one of the green Frog Tape lines. He then immediately wipes away the excess caulking using his gloved finger, pressing it firmly into the tape edge. He emphasizes the importance of using a small amount of caulk and wiping it away quickly to only fill the voids along the tape edge, not leave a thick bead that would smear with paint. He also stresses the importance of wearing gloves while handling caulk.

Goal: Apply a minimal amount of clear caulking and wipe it clean to seal the tape edge effectively

you've been talking okay so here we go this is just clear caulking and this is a high quality coffee now the keys is I don't want to put a big you know be to cuffing on here because I'm actually wiping all the caulking away the only thing we're actually doing is trying to fill those voids along this edge and that's what our coffee does so it's just a small bead of caulking that we're gonna wipe off the more caulking there is the more it's kind of smear around with your brush and stuff and you don't want that effect so I'm just gonna take it just put a nice very small bead of caulking on there you can kind of see it this is there's not very much on there and it doesn't have to be perfectly fake is you're gonna wipe it you know over so whether you're on the wall or on the on the tape it doesn't really matter now my talking's on there just take my hello and I like to have you like a wet rag or something I can just wipe my caulking on too so I'm just gonna wipe it on the press and get all of it off there's only gonna be black for like a thin residue left on this tape right here so the caulking swiped on there so this is a really rough surface so we'll see if we have any success so that one's down
