How To Paint A Stripe. Painting Stripes On Walls.

What happens here

To prevent paint from bleeding under the tape, apply a thin bead of clear caulking along the inner edges of both the top and bottom pieces of Frog Tape. After applying, use a finger or a caulking tool to smear and smooth the caulk, pushing it firmly into the gap between the tape and the wall. This creates a tight seal that will ensure perfectly clean, crisp paint lines.
