Masking Removal

What happens here

Once the door is fully painted and has had a chance to dry slightly, carefully pull off the masking tape around the door handle and deadbolt. It is crucial to pull the masking tape off at an angle away from the newly painted surface. Be very gentle and avoid touching the masking tape to the wet or tacky paint on the door. If the masking touches the door, it can leave a spot or mar the finish, requiring a repaint. The speaker recommends removing the deadbolt itself after the door is completely dry, as it can be more difficult to unmask without smudging.

Goal: Remove masking tape without damaging the fresh paint
