Rep Power: 0 | Well, small update, the primer worked great, so you're safe from litigation for now :P The masking tape job however, sucked ass  It bled into the low spots of the texture, which I thought I had prevented by smashing the tape in with a dull putty knife around the edge. It didnt work, so now I'm wondering what the best way of fixing it is. I thought about just going around with a razor blade and picking it out of those low spots, but I'm wondering if there's a more effective method. |

Rep Power: 10 | tape sucks. even the blue shit that is made for painting sucks. it still bleeds through. razor blade is probably a bad idea... can you take a pic of it? i'm not sure exactly what happened |

Rep Power: 0 | It bled under the masking tape, but only in the low spots of the texture (orange peel) pics in a sec. |
