I just added Collision edge website link to the description. Tools like this save us time and materials. Thanks for watching these videos!
It’s interesting how you think you know how to use something as simple as tape, then this video shows up and you find out you had no idea. Thanks Kevin for the tech tips and keep them coming!
Thanks Kevin for supporting our small, family owned company…Collision Edge. We value each and every customer! Keep up the great content!!! ❤
Hey Ginger!!! I'm so glad to showcase Collision Edge and the great products and tools you make!!! Say hello to Tim!!
3m used to make a product that was sticky foam in different diameter that works well and saves time. Soft edge that doesn't need to be sanded and buffed to remove the edge, the porous foam absorbs the excess paint and leaves a super clean transition. I guess they still make it, came in a box on a roll, been years since I've used it and not the cheapest product but worth every penny.
Looks like Derek’s truck is coming along. Can’t wait to see it!!💥
Kevin you can use cheap nylon rope in appropriate diameter to stuff those seams and it is re useable. Use your plastic card like for bondo to push it into place. 8 bucks at Walmart for 100ft
That cardboard is a new one. Thanks for sharing
Great video once again Kevin! I once did an entire respray on a car in a single car garage, the door jambs and under the hood etc came out of the gun looking like glass no polishing needed no orange peel too, then once i had finished the outer panels i found that the glue on the masking tape had disolved or dried out and lifted allowing overspray on my near perfect door jambs, i could have cried!! 😂 rookie mistake like you say make sure your tape is fit for automotive use i should have known the deal i got on the entire box (around 50 rolls) was too good to be true P.S Love that tape holster too 😎👌
I like the tape tool. Having it on the hip would be handy as HEL (you know) LOL Double back masking takes more time but I use it on the more expensive jobs vs tape lines. Wish I had TH-cam 40 years ago😂🤣😂 Always learning new stuff still😎
Great trucks thanks a lot will have to get the tape caddy for sure
Ok I need that fancy tape dispenser thingy now. Lol. I usually wear the tape roll as a bracelet.
I agree, with the tape dispenser. My hand wouldn’t fit threw the tape roll
Yep, though I still won't be able to use the magnetic on the car as magnets in my shop are coated in metal shavings the moment they come in.
I just ordered the Super Pack from their website. Great tool. I'm looking forward to using it!!
Thank you for you business!!!! ❤️
OMG the tape caddy, how I wish I had that back in the day. I always did it the hard way I guess lol
Derek's truck! You've scratched it!
Lol!!!! More than that...
Excellent instructional video Kevin! Keep them coming!!
Thanks, will do!
🐴🤠🇺🇲love it tapeing a huge part of a great paint job i know ty
Great information, thanks!
Again great tips that will need to know and use soon. I love the fact that you explain in detail not only how but the why and why not. Thanks again
I want that tape caddy but specifically for sausages. That could be very useful!
Thanks for the tips...🔧🔧👍
I always doubled up foam and rolled back paper with tape lol thank u sir for giving more tips
We always use rolled up newspapers. It works really well and it's cheap because everyone in shop gets atleast 1 newspaper a week free from our local newspaper plus you can have others collect them for you.
Great info Kev.
I wish i could afford Kevin's labor rate. You can tell he puts just as much attention into his jobs as I would and do, best effort stuff. Though i dont have the skills yet to paint at his level, I still try though.
Thank you for the video. Unless you've tried some of these tasks like masking before painting, you just can't imagine the time it takes. I seem to struggle with getting the tape just right to minimize the hard lines...not as easy as it looks imo.
Great tricks but you should look into foam aperture tape! It’ll save a lot of time and is very accurate
Hey Zach, thanks for the comment!! I used aperture tape ( foam tape) when i was a technician in collision shops. Granted it's been a minute, but I wasn't happy with the results... it let me down many times, and pulled out of corners, and the adhesive let go too many times for me to trust it. That said, It (like everything else) has probably gotten better over the years. I may try it again, but it's expensive, and it cost me time, so I don't want to point people towards it if I'm not 100% sold on it. The methods I show work, and anyone with a roll of tape can use them. 3M DART is $60.00 for a box.
Good evening,,,,,,,, Yeee Yeee 😊
Hey hey!!! Yeee!!
Foam tape works well for me
That’s great but in Sweden we have a foam tape.. it does that even easier in one tape. 👍
Kevin i use vaccum hose over and over cuz i soak the paint off every timee and it's blown dry and stored.
Talk about time saving on your gaps 🎉
thx Kevin
About time! Been waiting all day!!!!
Iv used tape for cracks or thin foam like weatherstripping type
I like foam appeture tape
Foam has let me down too many times.
Kevin 👍🏻 🙋♂️ 👍🏻
Looks like a sneak peak at the VGG truck about to git hit with some paint.
You know it!!!!
Thanks for the tips Kev! Are you gonna make it to SEMA this year?
That's the plan!
Kevin, do you ever use foam jamb tape (like 3M) or do you find this method more effective?
Just use foam...
👍
Do local brick and mortar stores carry automotive masking tape? If you run out or cannot find locally id blue tape ok in a pinch or is there something better?
Amazon
Leave it to Kevin, to teach me how to use tape the "SMART" way!
Good tips, however I don’t like the tape caddy. Body shops are always full of grinding dust. What happens when you set your tape down on a workbench or toolbox that has grinding dust on it? The metal shavings stick to the magnets, then when your masking the car and you stick it to a body panel, you now put scratches and metal shavings into your primer. At least if your contaminating the surface by putting your tape roll on the panel, it will be cleaned with grease and wax remover which should be done before spraying.
Thanks for the feedback & we value positive and negative. For those shops that struggle with metal shavings contaminating the tape or magnetic surface, we created The Tape Caddy (belt/pocket) tool so you do not have to place it directly on the car surface. It’s always with you and you never have to chase it if you keep it on The Tape Caddy with other tools used for masking as well. Have a blessed day!!
You should fake Derek by sending him a picture of the Van Hallen C-10 (black with crazy white and red stripes) as a joke!
That an awesome idea!!!!!
Hey Derek is a metalhead and guitarist too he may actually get ideas and get Kevin to do a replica EVH truck 😂
Cool
Is there ever a reason for blue tape? After using it a while you are willing to pay more for good tape. I like to pinch pennies but some places it's just not worth it. Cheap duct tape, electricians tape, painters tape it's just not worth the savings.
Sure! Blue tape is great for latex paint and household projects. The decent stuff is not cheap though!
Why has no one come up with a wipe/spray on masking that can be washed off after?
Liquid spray mask.... 3M product
Foam tape
I like this technique but give us a razor blad and a pice of tape we will cut fringes and paint
You lost me, putting tape inside the gap between the fender and Hood. I don't get it.
You don't want over spray in those areas... Especially if they're not prepped... What don't you get?
Sorry, but the time you spent screwing around trying to put tape in-between the jamb I could have the whole hood and fender taped and be moving on to something else, just run a 6 or 12" piece of masking paper on the inside of the jamb and move along
@@paintucation, if you're spraying the same color, who cares if there's overspray inside those gaps. Nobody's going to see it
@@karaDee2363 You're right, you don't get it. Overspray on un-prepped surface is gritty, inconsistent, collects dirt,and it will eventually flake off because its UN PREPPED. As long as you never open a door hood, fuel door, trunk, or hatch, you're right nobody will see it. I don't understand your debate.
I have to start with a huge Thank you! I've been painting (starting with rattle cans) for 50 years. Leave it to you to teach me something new. I guess the old saying, "It's what you learn after you know everything that counts". Again, many thanks, see you Saturday ~ Chuck
