What happens here

Start the masking process by attaching the masking film and tape from the dispenser to the top of the window frame. Position the tape about 0.25 inches (6 mm) from the edge of the window glass. Draw the dispenser smoothly across the entire top width of the window, ensuring the tape adheres firmly to the frame. When reaching the opposite side, maintain the 0.25-inch (6 mm) gap from the edge and then snap or tear the film and tape loose from the dispenser.

Goal: Secure the top edge of the masking film to the window frame.

What they say

Hide

I got two rolls. I start off on the window. I'm always going to start off on the window. Attach the masking about a quarter of an inch from the edge of the window. Then I'm going to draw the master all the way across. When I get to this side, I want to look real closely. Make sure it's about work it till it's about a quarter of an inch from that side. Hold it tight and then snap and rip it loose. I'm going to pull my masking film down
