I had to question why he was using painters' tape, and then noting that it's too sticky. Um, they make tape specifically for car detailing, and even if it was expensive, it's not like Jay is short of a quid.
I can actually relate to what he said about the tape because once you’ve experienced tape taking off paint [luckily it was not a customers vehicle] you learn to become extra cautious about using it.
Just because it’s specifically made for use on auto paint doesn’t guarantee it’s going to be 100% safe as this tape has more adhesion than typical painters tape.

Once you’ve experienced tape accidentally removing paint, you best believe it changes you. Lol. I applied tape and removed it the moment after taking this picture yesterday and taking pics like this is not something I prefer to do these days. [I only did it per customers request]
