this Chrissy Idaho painter from paint live TV and I'm gonna be talking briefly here about some tape and I get questions all the time about tapes and I've got you know three tapes right here I just want to talk about and the orange tape is something I'm getting a lot of questions you know not just nationally but worldwide about this tape and one of it is because of the color but this is the production tape that we use in a production tape in general is cheaper than a non production tape and this is frog tape pro-grade orange tape frog tape also has pro-grade of blue painters tape and I'm gonna tell you a little bit about the difference between the blue and then frog tape green the traditional tape that has paint block technology now these two tapes the blue and the green have paint loss technology and the orange does not and you know I started using frog tape years and years and years ago that traditional green tape and this is one of those things that just showed up in painting it was very innovative there really changed painting really changed how we went about painting and it was one of those innovative ideas and products that helped us make money it just really comes down to making money and frog tape Green has paint block technology and this technology is technology on the outside of the tables of polymer that swells up with any type of liquid hits it and this makes it so you can get perfectly straight lines when it comes to painting now how is this actually revolutionized you know painting and how is this innovative well it used to take somebody you know it could take you three four five six years to learn how to cut in straight line zero a door a window trim or even baseboards you can literally now take somebody that has no painting experience in one month they could be getting perfectly laser sharp painting lines with frog tape green and that's because of this paint block technology and it's a patented technology that only Freight frog tape has it's one of those tough most amazing game-changing products or tools that every painter should have I eventually started using you know orange tape this is a production tape unlike frog tape this is it is frog tapes pro-grade orange production tape this does not have paint block technology this is a production tapes significantly cheaper we use production tapes just for your everyday masking and what I'm asking a house when it comes to your masking floors masking windows masking painted surfaces fences roof this is an all-around tape that sticks to a wide variety of surfaces and one of the reasons why I switched from your everyday beige production tape which I use for years and years this stuff sticks better than any tape that I've ever used before in my entire career it sticks to things like fences is six the things like on dusty roofs it sticks to hot humid surfaces it just sticks to everything and one of the things the drawbacks to a tape that actually sticks so much is it as it release very well but this is unlike any other tape it sticks so well but then also releases consistently and very easily and it does not splinter there's nothing more annoying than production tape that splinters because now you're trying to pick off that tape off the surface another difference between orange production tape and green frog tape is green frog tape has a 21-day release a production tape this tape has a three-day release so the paper the adhesive is going to start to dry it's going to start to splinter if you start to leave it beyond that release time table now frog tape green has come frog tape themselves they come out with frog tape blue now this this is a green is individually packaged in this this package itself keeps the tape protected because it is expensive tape you don't want moisture getting on it you don't want to get in banged up dinged up so they package it individually and so that makes it a little bit more expensive the same technology has gone into blue take this as paint block technology as the polymer the outside edge of the tape that swells up does it allow anything to leak underneath but this has a premium paper on it this has a non premium paper that's a little bit less expensive and that it's also packaged in four packs like your standard production tape standard production tape is typically packaged like this it keeps the cost of the tape down but FrogTape blue now for pax it's got a not a non premium tape it's a little bit thicker so just makes a more affordable option but it comes to frog tape this these products - they have revolutionized our painting process how we've gone about painting how we go about teaching you know the new guys how to paint we don't have to put a brush in a roller and just wait around for years and years for them to learn how to cut in a straight line the quicker they can get a brushing around the quicker an employee can cut in a straight line or outdoor jams the faster they are gonna start making you money and so this is a way to get an employee you know out of that training phase into the money-making phase so the simple way to get high-quality professional results is just to use frog paste line of tapes [Music]
