Waterproof tape? Any other ideas?
Is there a tape that would not allow water to seep underneath it? I want to strip off a section on a project I have going, but cannot allow the paint stripper to seep under.
Anybody know of a type of tape that would work? Or I am open to other ideas on how to achieve this? Thanks!

You'd be better off using rubber tape and a sandblaster. I don't know of any type of adhesive that will withstand paint stripper, especially since it will eat the paint and just work underneath it anyways.

Aluminum foil tape *might* work. Depends on the stripper used.

This sounds like a better solution, although it might still seep under. Still better than other tape solutions.
What about making a bead around it using gasket sealer or something? Something a little inventive that could be removed once I have finished stripping it. Am I crazy?

freehand the stripper. I don't think any tape will stop it from creeping.

Also you have to take into consideration that eventually you want to take the tape off, without damaging anything.

Now I don't know how it would work with paint stripper (I suppose it depends on what the base of it is), but Frog Tape will keep latex/water-based products from bleeding.
