Which tape is best for creating a pattern or border?

Ask a Pro
 
Q. -  When doing a  complicated pattern, what type of masking tape do you use?
 
Hello Chris,
 
A. -  The best tape you can use to create a pattern and/or a border on concrete when concrete staining, is actually a packaging tape. The kind that is a clearish looking, with the strings that run through it. You can find the packaging tape that has the strings running through it (clearish - like a plastic type of tape or a heavy duty scotch tape sort of tape - just be sure that it is not a paper tape, and that it does have the strings running through it) at about any packaging store, ups, fedex, etc.
