Lately I’ve been in a repair and renew type of mode around the house.
I changed all of the fire alarms, replaced weather strips on my doors, organized my garage, and even cleaned all of the tile grout on my first floor by hand.
Every little thing that I can think of has been taken care of.
I know some people may find this work tiresome, but I like to look at it another way. It’s good exercise and I can be alone because the kids won’t bug me about something or another every couple of minutes.
I just put on my headphones and get to work. Another project I recently tackled was painting the baseboards on my first floor.
If you want to know how to paint baseboards with FrogTape® brand painter’s tape, then I’m going to give you a few tips to make the task painless. Enjoy!
How To Paint Baseboards
Step 1
Remove all dirt and grime from the baseboards. I used soap, hot water, and an old rag.
Let the baseboards completely dry. 
Step 2
Apply FrogTape® Multi-Surface with PaintBlock technology to the wall just above the top of the baseboard and to the floor where the baseboard meets the floor.
*Make sure you test before you, per the instructions on the back of the tape container. Also, follow any suggestions given for applying on textured surfaces. 
Step 3
Use paint of desired color and paint brush to apply long even strokes to baseboard.
It’s ok if paint gets on the tape because the PaintBlock technology will allow for clean lines and won’t let the paint bleed through.
Apply two coats of paint. 
Step 4
While paint is still wet, remove it from the wall and floor.
Some paint tapes say you have to wait for the paint to dry, but not if you’re using FrogTape® Multi-Surface. 
Step 5
Allow paint to dry. Enjoy your beautifully renewed baseboards.

I love how much easier Frog tape makes painting!! Painting can be such a chore and take a ton of time to get done too.
What an easy and efective way of renovation, really cool idea!
I’ve never thought about this before. It is a great idea!!
The next time I paint I am sure going to look for Frog Tape.
Those tapes are very useful especially when you’re planning to repaint an entire room and not just the baseboards. It’s really nice to have a couple of these in your stock room or toolbox!
Painting can be quite a chore especially when it involves small spaces or very limited ones. Painting the baseboard with these tapes around definitely makes the job easier!
Oh, this is really nice. I haven’t try painting. I will take note of this post.
Thank you for the great help! I have been putting off painting. I might just get a project going now that I have more help 🙂
I use frog tape all the time…and it works way better than other brands. They have variety of colors too! Thanks for sharing!
This is super smart. Thank you for the awesome tips. We are going to be painting a couple rooms her shortly and we’ll for sure use frog tape
Great tutorial for folks like me! I’m bookmarking this, thank you.
This is a great guide. I wouldn’t mind going through and painting our baseboards. This tape would be helpful.
September is my reorganize and redo month. My baseboards need work. I am using FrogTape.. Love that you don’t need to wait till dry.
I’ve never tried frog tape. I have always heard great things, plus my baseboards are in desperate need of a new coat of paint.
You should pick up some when you get ready to do your baseboards! It works great!
I want to repaint my entire down stairs. The last tape we used stuck to the walls and ripped some of the paint off! I will have to give this frog tape a try!
This has no ripping and you can even take it off while the paint is still wet!
I always love this trick. So neat and just amazing. You could create easy lines without the mess.
Yes! That’s why I love it!
Great tips! I can’t recall ever having to paint baseboards. I would probably have my SON do it lol
That sounds like the perfect plan to me! Lol
I am planning to redecorate my wall. And I am actually thinking of painting baseboards. Thanks for the awesome tips.
You’re very welcome, Kathy!
