Poor performance

Bought a well known brand with a great reputation. Very poor results. Tape tore paint off the walls when removing.
I opted for the name brand - really discouraged. Didn't know this would happen until we were done. Very good quality of paint was used.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Very disappointed

I just finished my project wall a wall in my work-room - or I should say I thought I was finished. I took several days to prep and paint because it was important for it to look "just right" when all done. With the paint dry, it was time to remove the Scotch Blue Painter's Tape (Original Multi-Surface) to finish. How disappointing that as I peeled away the tape, along with it peeled large sections of the paint away from the wall edges and thin sections of the tape (close to the wall and door frame) are left in other spots. Instead of a nice, finshed painted wall, all I have is more work. I will have to completely repair and re-paint all of the edges. I would have had more success not using the tape and taking my chances getting paint over the edges and onto the door frame, baseboard and adjoing wall by doing it free hand. I will never use your paint tape again. It was a complete waste of my time and money. Your tape packaging says it's "ideal for: painting walls & trim, Woodwork, Glass, Metal" have you actually used it?? I should not have to take hours with a tweezer and hobby knife to dig out and peel off the tape that is stuck as well as trying to repaint the hunky areas where the tape pulled off paint from the wall. But that is what I will have to do to fix the mess that your tape made. Thanks for the disapointment.

Thank you for taking the time to write a Rating & Review on our ScotchBlue(TM) Multi-Surface Painter's Tape. We guarantee our product to protect the surface it is on and remove cleanly up to 14 days after being applied. Unfortunately this sounds like the paint layer on top of the tape pulled off with the tape taking the new paint with it. For these issues you would have the option of scoring the line, or removing the tape while the paint is still somewhat wet. This becomes more of an issue with high quality washable latex paints. If you feel you used the tape as intended and want to discuss the product performance further please contact us at 800-362-3550 M-F 7:00 am to 6:00 pm CST. Please also keep an eye out for a direct e-mail.

It is the BEST

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just finished a painting project with our French Doors and wooden screen doors. I had a roll of ScotchBlue painter's tape and used it to paint the outer screen doors first. I forgot how great it worked. I especially like that when I peel off the tape that the paint does not bleed through at the edges and I like that it's wider so it covers the area so when I brush the paint doesn't get on the surface I don't want painted. Well, I ran out and happened to have an off brand cheaper tape. I was SO frustrated. The tape continued to curl up and fall off and when I did paint and later pulled the tape off, it bled through and I had to use a scraper to get the paint off the windows. This caused me to work double time. I hated it. It convinced me more than ever, I will never paint again UNLESS I have ScotchBlue Painter's tape. It is by far the BEST!!!!!!

Safe on Delicate Surfaces

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a teacher. I used ScotchBlue Painter's Tape on my dry erase board last school year. I created a couple of charts which had columns and rows. We used this for daily activities and to list assignments and information needed by the students. The tape stayed up all year...not a single piece needed to be replaced. On the last day of school when I tore it down, there was no residue left behind and it came down very quickly. I recommend ScotchBlue Painter's tape for teachers for use in the classroom!

Didn't work as expected

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am not happy at all with the tape. It stuck to my walls and pulled off the primer. Now I have a big mess and a lot of extra work. Plain masking tape worked better. Very disappointed and won't buy again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great stuff!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've used this product for all of my painting projects, and it hasn't failed me yet! Paint edges have remained crisp without seepage, even with orange peel-textured walls. Removal has been a breeze; no paint pull-off. Yes, it's a pain to do the prep work, but with this tape, I don't have to worry about cleaning up stray paint later. So worth it!

Well thanks to your product i now have to buy new paint for trim work. I used your tape to save money and try to protect the trim that I had already painted, well that was a huge mistake because when i tried to take off the tape it peeled the paint that was on my trim. So now i have to spend another sum of money for more paint. Thanks for the waist of time and money
