ABSTRACT:
Broadly, the present invention is directed to an edge protector method and system for protecting an outside corner, e.g., of a room, which corner is formed by two walls or faces. The novel tape for protecting such outside corner is formed from polymeric material desirably having a thickness of from about 5 to 20 mils and which is formed from a pair of sides with an interconnecting hinge, said sides formed from a relatively stiff polymeric material compared to said hinge which is formed from a relatively flexible and elastic polymeric material compared to said sides, said hinge preferably being arcuate in shape, said tape having a front surface and a rear surface which is coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive. The novel tape is applied to the corner by its unrolling from the roll with the hinge in axial alignment with the outside corner followed by pressing of the coated rear surface sides on each face extending from the corner to form a corner edge protector for the corner.
