What happens here

When working with metallic finishes, it's crucial to mask all edges using high-quality painter's tape, such as Frog Tape. This prevents bleed-through and ensures clean lines. After applying the product, immediately hit and work your edges to blend them in before the paint dries, which prevents stippled edges and maintains a smooth appearance.

Goal: Ensure clean edges and smooth transitions
