Difficult to peel from roll, ink smears

I finally gave in to temptation and bought 2 rolls of washi tape yesterday. This morning I was eager to use it for something, but after 15 minutes of trying to peel a full width piece from the roll I lost interest. The tape stuck to itself and tore at an angle so that I shredded my fingernails trying to conquer it. When I finally succeeded in removing a 1 inch long piece from the roll I was disappointed to find that it was not great to write on. Pencil barely showed up. Gel ink smeared and ball point ink skipped on the slippery surface. The only thing that wrote easily on the tape was a fine point Sharpie, but a fine point Sharpie can write on just about anything. The only good thing is that I won't be tempted to buy another roll just because it comes in fun colors.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

won't peel

I'm an avid washi tape user (I journal with it). I bought one little roll today and I was so upset when I opened it and it was so hard to peel. I kept getting tiny shreds and could NOT get a a full clean peel for use on anything. What I did peel up left behind sticky residue. I really expected more from this brand; I'm going to stick with my "go-to" after this.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Can't unroll...

I bought a roll of purple washi tape today to use for labeling books with my name, but I think I got a dud roll. Very disappointed. Unrolled about two feet of shreds before giving up. I'm not sure if the adhesive was too strong or the tape was too fragile or what. Definitely not what I'm used to quality-wise from Scotch/3M. Too bad..I was looking forward to finally doing that project!

I got the gold Washi tape for a project for my grandson and it would not stick. I had to use glue to try to get it to stick to the foam core board! Very disappointed. Didn't have time or money to go get something else.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I am a washi tape expert. I use it daily and was so happy to get a gorgeous roll by Scotch Expressions. It is awful and completely shreds on the role. Are they melting in a hot warehouse? Waste of my time and mney.

Great product to use to dress up envelopes!
on June 17, 2024
Posted by: Washi Enthusiast
I use your washi tape to seal and dress up envelopes I'm sending through the U.S. mail. Here's why I like your product: it's glossy and the colors pop, even when placed on non-white envelopes, and it sticks well to paper. I've ordered other brands of washi online and while the designs are lovely, I'm finding that competitors' tape is transparent and the underlying paper color shows through, often resulting in the design becoming blurry and less noticeable. Plus, other brands don't seem to have the sticky grab I want when applied to an envelope that will get processed by machinery. No complaints here about your Expressions Washi Tape! I just wish you offered more designs. Think about partnering with designer Kaffe Fassett or other artists to come up with some eye-grabbing, colorful Washi!
