What happens here

When using tape on light fixtures, especially on delicate finishes or if the fixtures will remain removed for an extended period (more than two days), use painter's tape with a long-release adhesive, such as Frog Tape Delicate, Frog Tape Blue, or Frog Tape Green. Avoid using high-adhesion production tape, as it can dry out, leave residue, or even pull off the finish of the light fixture upon removal, leading to extra cleaning or damage.

Goal: Prevent damage to light fixture finishes from tape
