One major problem you may face is if you remove your painter’s tape after the paint has dried. Doing so will result in much of the paint being removed along with the tape. To prevent this from happening, it is best to pull the tape off the walls and corners when it is still slightly wet. Wait thirty minutes after painting to begin removing the tape. After you have examined your room to see that there are no paint splatters, it is now time to remove your furniture covers and tarps. If you do have some paint splatter, you can easily remove it with a cloth and some warm water.
