Indoor painting and decorating for sharp lines and no paint bleed There are many opinions on when to remove the masking tape from painted areas. However, we’d recommend removing it once the paint is dry to the touch. This is about an hour after painting. If this isn’t possible, we’d say try and remove it within 24 hours. There are some masking tapes available that can be left on a surface for up to 60 days. When you reach a corner that you need to mask, pull off more tape than your need from the roll. Then, using the putty knife again, place it into the corner and tear the tape off of the roll. This will create a seamless gap in the corner.

You can also use masking to attach dustsheets to the floor. It works wonders for this and won’t leave any residue when you’re finished. This is a multi-surface masking tape, and it comes in three different sizes. We’ve chosen the 48mm one for our list because we believe it is the most versatile. It has a medium adhesion strength and can be removed cleanly up to 14 days after application.
