Damaged walls and posters
on July 19, 2021

I bought this a few months ago and hung four posters and a few cut outs with it. After deciding to redo the room, I began to remove the items from the walls. Long story short, this product ripped the posters apart and took multiple layers of paint off the wall. Would not recommend.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I'm a card maker and I use a lot of foam tape for dimension on my cards. A few years ago you changed from a stiffer, yellowish tape to this new thin white tape. It sticks to my teflon scissors, is hard to cut thin slivers, and the last several inches sticks to the plastic roll so I can't use it. Please bring back the old foam tape! This new tape is awful.
I've purchased this product several times before and loved it. The new version is much softer than it used to be and now sticks to my scissors, tears, and distorts it's shape so much that it is way too hard to use. Please go back to making this the way you used to.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a package of this Scotch Indoor Mounting Tape on hand after receiving it as a free sample and it came in for me in a pinch the other day while crafting because it was just the right thickness and density for the project I was doing. The adhesive seems really good and the tape was also more moldable than some mounting tapes I have used.
If you've used this in the past, don't bother with it now. I've purchased the 36 yard rolls for years and it was wonderful for crafting. But not any longer. Too thin and gummy. It's nothing like it was before. Sticks to my teflon coated scissors and to each other while cutting, so I have to toss them. Takes way longer to cut pieces for my stamped images. I'll have to look around for something better than this current product. Yuck.

This product description is very misleading and false . To make my complaint short as I have already written your corporate office . It claims to hold up to 10 lbs , I Purchased it hold Christmas garland that could not have weighed more than 5 lbs . My garland kept falling and I had to keep hanging it back up . I finally got sick and tired of rehanging it I gave up . And yes I used plenty of multiple strips to distribute the weight for the tape .
Now it has left the tape residue permanently to my brand new homes walls!! The tape does not complete come off!! I specifically purchased this product because it says does not remove paint. I was mislead thinking it would be easy removal. That is not the case !! I hope they will offer some type of resolution to the damages . I am never one to complain , so for me to write this I really feel this company has mislead the consumer with their product and have given false guarantee to the product’s performance.

Just went to the website to see if I had to do a process in order to activate the glue cause now is doesn't stick to anything!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Used the mounting tape to mount a couple heavy (wood framed) earaser boards in the house , and was pleasently surprised how easy and well it worked . Boards have been rock solid on the walls and have not budged since they were mounted .
