removal was terrible, left glue all over.
on May 11, 2026
Posted by: YeahNo2026
We bought a 3 pack of this tape for use when we paint the bottom of our boat. we do this every year. we have always used Scotch 3M painters tape. This "Blue Original" #2090 is terrible!
Yesterday we taped the boat, this morning we painted. This afternoon we "removed" the tape, or at least we tried to. it came off in little pieces. there is glue left all over the place. even little patches of blue buried in the glue!.
Now what?

Time to throw this away.
PS... in the review it askes "On a scale of 0-10, how likely are you to recommend Scotch™ Painters Tape to a friend or colleague?*"
Weel it wont let you pick 0-never even though it is a choice.

worse tape I've used in 50 years.

Bought a roll of this tape #2090 .Do yourself a favor and never buy this junk. Worse tape for painting I ever used. Tape doesn't stick to anything. I have no idea what Scotch is doing but they are making junk tape now...

It used to be great

I was a professional painter for over 10 years. I ALWAYS used the blue tape. I now only paint for family and friends and recently bought this absolute garbage tape and what an absolute waste of money. Trying to pull any length of tape and it rips in weird places. It's unusable in a hand masker. The worst tape on the market DO NOT BUY.

Worst Tape Ever
on December 13, 2025
Posted by: Campbell91
Tape dont stick to nothing. I cleaned everything and it still wont stick. Not even to plastic. Big waste of money and time having to go re tape everything over and over. Afraid when its finally time to paint its just gonna blow off and im gonna ruin everything I tried covering. I would never recommend this tape to anybody but their system wont let me go with 0/never only a one. LOL

Horrible results when removing 2090 tape

I put this tape down over a quality primer and premium paint. It's horrible when removed. My work has doubled. I must go back and repaint.
Just a bad product.

Makes more work, not less.

I spent time applying this tape a couple hours ago to dry walls. When I went to take it off, it took off the paint from those walls! Now I have to repaint those areas and obviously can’t use this tape. Very disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Tape doesn't adhere to the wall. Clean painted walls yet tape will not stay.
