What happens here
While the paint is still wet, carefully remove any masking tape and plastic from around windows, doors, or other protected areas. Pulling the masking off while the paint is wet prevents the paint from drying and creating a 'bridge' between the masked surface and the painted wall. If the paint dries over the tape, removing it can cause the freshly applied paint to peel off, damaging the finish. Be extra careful when removing the masking around freshly caulked areas to maintain the clean line.
Goal: Prevent paint peeling by removing masking at the right time.
