Blue Tape on Wallpaper

fine-sddBy mistake, I applied a medium strength 3M Painters Blue Tape on a fine-paper wallpaper in order to protect it while I painted the crown moulding. As a result, when I began to remove the blue tape, it took a couple of patches of wallpaper off the wall. I was eventually able to get the tape off using a heat gun on low. While getting the hang of heat/speed, I bubbled/blistered a 2 inch by 1/4 inch wide patch of new moulding paint with the heat gun. My questions a 1. What brand/type masking tape can I use on fine-paper wallpaper to avoid pulling off the top layer of paper when removing the tape? 2. How can I fix the edges of the paint blister and finish it so it' looks better? TIA for any tips, suggestions, and comments. Manjo |
