Why is painters tape blue?
Painters' tape isn't always blue, sometimes it's green, depending on the manufacturer. However, painters' tape is made in color to differentiate it from regular masking tape. This makes it easier to identify in both the retail store and the toolbox. Masking tape has more and more aggressive adhesive on it, when it is removed from painted surfaces it can and often does, leave an adhesive residue behind or remove some of the top coat of the paint. Painter's tape is designed to be easily removed with the least amount of damage/cleanup. This is not to say you can leave painters' tape on a surface indefinitely and have it come off with no difficulties.

How do you get white paint from windows?
If you have painted the trim around your window and dripped or over-painted onto the surface of the window, the best solution is to use a single edged razor-bade to scrape the dried paint off of the glass. Place the sharp side of the razor at a slight angle onto the glass and gently scrape off the paint. In future, when painting around windows you can save yourself clean-up time by masking the glass with painters' tape or you can use an old painters' trick and take strips of newspaper (approximately 2" wide), dip them in water to moisten, and place them on the glass like you would the painters' tape. The moist paper adheres to the glass and does not leave any adhesive reside when removed.
