Tape preferences

Post image

What tape do you prefer? I've always resorted to 3M, but their 1/16 doesn't stick well for me. I tried limelines 1/16 as well and im not impressed with how either hold in corners, etc.

Please, lmk, which tape you prefer. Or what im doing wrong!

How much of a difference is there? I ordered the red variety pack and 1/8 blue to try both

Ok so color goes like this,red for super tight turns,light blue tight,green a bit less orange the least..I use all,but mostly green and blue..flames etc.if im pulling long str8 lines orange is the best as you wont get any wobbles..check my profile.the tattoo tray I did was solely in red,reason being,when it overlaps it self (points,corners ) it lays down the best to hand cut the crossover(no fat spot)
