In restoring an antique safe, I used frog tape to mask off an area to be painted a different color. The paint bled under the frog tape worse than what I see with Scotch Blue painter's tape. This caused a tremendous amount of repeated work for me and put my project behind schedule.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This is the best painters tape I have ever used hands down. I recently painted stripes in my dining room. I started by using the blue painters tape because that is what I always used but I was never happy with the results. After putting a few pieces on the wall to block off a space for sample colors I peeled the blue tape off and there was horrible bleeding. In many places the top layer of drywall came with the tape. These walls were already primed and painted before so I never thought the drywall paper would come off, it did. So I went back to the home improvement store and they recommended Frog Tape. I had never heard of it before but the store clerk said it works wonders. Took a roll home and never looked back. I went right into the project and started using the Frog Tape, after the painting was over it was the moment of truth. I peeled the tape off and my jaw dropped at the incredibly clean lines, perfect! No drywall came with the tape and the lines were as sharp as a razor. I could not be happier with the Frog Tape, I will never buy any other kind of painters tape again. LOVE Frog Tape!
We recently tiled a back-splash in our kitchen and also painted. Frog Tape was excellent for covering both the counter tops to protect from grout droppings, and painting around the baseboards and molding. I would highly recommend it. It does exactly what it says it does, and is dependable.
My husband and I used it to paint 2 rooms and we loved it. It's easy to use and keeps a crisp edge with no bleeding under and when y ou're ready to remove it, it peels off easily without pulling any paint with it! I would def recommend this product to everyone!!
Love this Frog Tape!! It does exactly what they say it will do, it really works! I always used the other "blue" tape, but it didn't work as well as I liked so I decided to try the "green" frog tape and I am so glad I did!! I will be using this product from now on.
I used frog tape to tape off my baseboard before painting the walls a color and leaving the baseboards white. They came out great, no bleed of paint at all. You do need to make sure you press it down firmly on the surface to make sure there isn't any bleed though.
