HOW TO USE A MASKER. Using A 3M Hand Masker. How to use a tape dispenser.

What happens here

The hand masker's cutter blade is removable and adjustable. It features four holes for different tape widths. For 1-inch masking tape, align the blade to the second hole from the end to ensure it sits flush and creates a clean, even cut. If using 1.5-inch tape, you would select the third hole. After adjusting, simply snap the blade back into its designated slot on the masker. New blades are extremely sharp, so handle with care.

Goal: Calibrate and install the cutter blade to match the tape width for precise cuts on the paper masker.

What they say

Hide

Got a good set. Ready to go. The blade itself comes off. You got to be careful when these things are brand new. They're extremely sharp. So you want to set it's got four holes and the holes are there so you can set it according to your tape. The second hole in set it where the mask or the blade is completely even with the tape just like that. If you got inch and a half tape then you're going to want to set into third hole in which sets the blade out wider as you can see. So I'm using 1 in tape. Going to set my blade just like that. I use a ladder hook. And I like these ladder hooks like this cuz I keep the hand maskers on my back
