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]

Thanks. I actually had a hard time trying to take some good shots. Maybe it was the time of day.

After 2:10 I was done. I have no words to describe what I’m thinking. None. Zip. Zilch. Nada.

That may be for some brands, but 3M has like 100 different masking tapes all tweaked for a particular application. Oh, sorry, make that 2509 different masking tapes: https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/p/?Ntt=masking+tape

Or have it lift the factory coating off the rubber window seals like happened when I did the farewell detail for my E36 M3.

Imagine removing the tape from an F1 and pulling off paint, I wonder if Jay would have a joke for that

That’s why he used it on his jeans to lighten up the tackiness. You can learn a thing or 2 from a “clown”lol.

True but because Jay's a comedian I'd rather learn from a legit clown
Ric, how far from where Jay's cars are you, get in there and make us proud
