What happens here

Carefully take each pre-taped paper strip and slide it underneath the baseboards. The presenter notes that most baseboards will have a thin enough gap between them and the flooring to allow the paper to be slid underneath. Ensure the tape portion of the strip is positioned directly against the baseboard, with the paper extending onto the floor. Do not press the tape down firmly at this stage; simply slide the paper into place.

Goal: Position the protective paper beneath the baseboards.

Tools and materials

  • Masking paper with Frog Tape N/AForming the protective barrier

What they say

Hide

I'm pulling out, using my masker, and then I'm just taking and sliding underneath the baseboards. I'm going to thin it on the gap, like it's sliding underneath there, and I'm not pressing it down. I'm sliding underneath, being very careful, running a piece of tape on the same touching it right here.
