How to stop paint bleed on glass! #homeimprovement #paintedfurniture #tipsandtricks #tipoftheday

What happens here

Once the tape is applied along the mirror's edge, take a 2-inch knife or a sharp utility knife. Carefully run the blade along the seam where the tape meets the mirror and the wood, pressing firmly to cut the excess tape and tuck it into the corner. This action ensures a crisp, clean line and a tight seal, which is crucial for preventing any paint from seeping under the tape and onto the mirror. This technique guarantees perfect paint lines for a professional finish on the furniture.

Goal: Utilize a 2-inch knife or utility knife to meticulously trim and tuck the applied tape into the corners, creating a perfectly sealed and tight edge against the glass and frame.
