"Hi, this is Dan we are finishing up on our paint job and now we are going to tape. This paint is still wet right here where we cut it in. We are going to remove our tape while it is still wet. The reason that I"m going to do this is to keep it from excessive pulling cause we already have one dry paint on this tape. So how are we going to do that? We are going to start on the top or the bottom it does not really matter. We are going to put this at an angle. By doing that I'm keeping this at a small point kind of spinning it along and it is going to make it where I'm less likely to pull dry paint off the wall. Keep a nice fine point. I would just continue taking it slow. The faster you go the more likely you are to have a blow out and you want to make sure that you keep your self where you can get it at the right angles. You want to keep that point as small as you possibly can and just work your way down. Take your time, it is not a race and at the end, you would be glad that you did. Now as you can see you have a good clean crisp line right there. Like any painting there is always small amounts of touch ups. But that line is nothing you can get by hand."
