What happens here

Once all the tape and plastic are in place, use a wet cloth to firmly press down and smooth out all the edges of the applied tape. The moisture from the cloth helps to activate the paint-blocking properties of specialized painter's tapes like FrogTape, ensuring a super sharp paint line. This step also helps to remove any air bubbles or loose edges, guaranteeing maximum adhesion and preventing paint bleed.

Goal: Ensure maximum tape adhesion and activation of paint-blocking properties.
