Paper & Plastic Masking Tips Painting Kitchen Cabinets

What happens here

Take a roll of 1.5-inch FrogTape Green. Begin by kneeling or positioning yourself comfortably to access the cabinet face frame interiors. Carefully measure and apply the tape along the interior edges of the cabinet face frames. Ensure the tape is firmly pressed down onto the wood to create a tight seal, which is critical for preventing any paint from seeping underneath during spraying or rolling. The presenter specifically recommends using 1.5-inch tape over 1-inch tape because the wider adhesive surface provides a larger margin for error when subsequently attaching the plastic sheeting. This extra width also helps in preventing accidental tears in the plastic from exposing the cabinet's interior finish to paint, thereby offering enhanced protection.

Goal: Apply 1.5-inch FrogTape Green to the inside edges of the cabinet face frames to create a clean, paint-blocking border and provide a wider surface for plastic adhesion.
