What happens here

Before painting, prepare the windows by masking off all surrounding areas that should not be painted. Use Frog Tape specifically for this task, as it is designed to prevent bleed-through onto surfaces like stucco. After masking, thoroughly clean the window frames with denatured alcohol to remove any dirt, grime, or residues, ensuring optimal adhesion of the paint.

Goal: Prepare windows for painting by masking surrounding areas and cleaning the frames.

Tools and materials

  • Denatured Alcohol — Cleaning and degreasing the window frames prior to painting
  • Frog Tape Frog Tape — Masking off areas to prevent paint bleed-through, especially on stucco
