The wife has been doing some projects in the house and is about going

She'd like to know if there is a better alternative, if she should
look for a particular brand, or if there is something else to help
with the issue.

You're waiting too long. *Pull the tape with the paint wet.

i wondered if they meant it was pulling the paint they stuck the tape to
off the wall. *that happened to me a time or two. *Then i learned to cut
in without tape.- Hide quoted text -

I got tickled watching my sister in law trying to paint staight line
on a cinder block wall using masking tape. She finally got POed whe I
broke out into a laugh. I snapped a chaulk line and started my cut-in
work.
Funny thing is she taught me how to cut in. Shes a bit of an artist.
