Hey Ty,

I never spray clear before I spray the color. I have not had any problems with the edges doing it that way. I assume the clear softened up the red and when you tried to pull the mask it let go all the way to the covering like you said. I agree that waiting for it all to dry would have probably made it work better. No matter, I will send you replacement masks at no charge. I will have them in the mail soon.

When you pulled your masks did you run a hairdryer along the mask as you pulled it up?  NOT a heat gun, but a hair dryer.  It will soften the mask and the adhesive and it will lift real easy.  I use it when pulling tape and and masks always.  It has really helped me to cut back on pullups and issues when pulling tape and masks.
