What happens here

After applying the perimeter FrogTape, use a sharp utility knife to trim the excess tape at each corner. Make precise cuts where the tape strips overlap to form perfect 90-degree angles, creating clean, square corners. This step is critical for achieving a professional finish without ragged edges. The small trimmed pieces of tape are then removed.

Goal: Achieve neat, sharp corners for the masked window opening.

Tools and materials

And then I just put my excess pieces right on the glass. Just like that. Then you're just going to want to push it down really quick. Make sure it's on the glass. Then I just take my hand masker, fill it in.
