Troubleshooting

Ensure the tape is firmly applied, creating a good seal. Consider using a smoother tool to press the tape edges down. In some cases, applying a thin layer of the base coat color along the tape edge before the top coat can help seal the edge.

The tape is difficult to remove.

Remove the tape within 24 hours. Use a hairdryer to gently heat the tape for a few seconds before removal, which may loosen the adhesive.
