[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Whenever i have used your painters tape it's always worked exactly as it should!For example it can be very stressful when it's time to remove the tape from your freshly painted walls but with your scotch painters tape i have never been disappointed!It always comes off just as it should without removing any paint.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I'm back to the original!! Soooo very disappointed. There's nothing like painting a whole rooms trim and go to remove the tape and have the paint come off the wall.

Product does not do what it says!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I researched the 3 different types of scotch blue tapes. We had used a different brand of tape in the past because they guaranteed edge lock protection, and experienced paint leaked past the edges of the tape. So I decided to use the tried and true product, the one that's been around forever. SAME THING. I'm very disappointed. We had painted a color on the top half of the room and a color on the bottom half of the room. A day later, we put the edge lock tape to mask off a 2 inch 'stripe' and then I painted the open area. After pulling the tape off, there was brown bleeding onto my freshly painted walls! I now have to go back and take a tiny brush and touch up to try to get as straight a line as I can. I'm VERY disappointed.

Even with my second edge lock project, I would not recommend the product. I just finished a stripe in a bedroom and it looks terrible! No edge here! I will have to paint the whole room over with no stripe!

Bleeds everywhere

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a roll of the regular scotch blue painter's tape, but it was taking a bit of the ceiling paint when I removed it, so I decided to purchase the delicate surface with edge-lock. I cannot express my disappointment in this product. (except for the not removing ceiling paint part....it was okay there...it only removed a few small areas in comparison with the regular blue tape). The biggest problem was the amount of bleeding. I had previously taped one wall with the regular blue tape before purchasing the "delicate surface" tape. I then taped the other 3 walls with the new tape. Then, I painted as I did in the adjoining bedroom (in which I had used the regular blue tape). I cannot express the horror when I pulled the delicate tape and found it had bled under the surface of the tape all over my ceiling. Now, I have to go to the expense of repainting the ceiling in those 3 areas. The regular blue tape, although it took more of the delicate ceiling paint, came off like a charm with a crisp line. Will not ever pay extra to purchase this type again!!

Very Disappointed

It didn't work any better than regular masking tape. There was seepage in too many places for it to be worth the extra money. I had to go back and touch-up in numerous places.

DO NOT BUY

Absolutely the worst painter's tape I have ever used. At first the product would NOT stick to the wall or baseboard. During painting the tape bubbled up and caused my dark paint to poor onto the white baseboard. Now taking the tape off, there is DEFINITELY NO edge lock and delicate is a lie! Ripped off half my wall and now I must spend my afternoon repainting. Worst product ever! I had gone out of my way to find the "delicate" brand and it was a waste of time. You might as well take your luck with no tape before using this awful product. I am submitting pictures and demanding my money back!

Never fails to perform the same reliable way everytime

If you are an artist that uses paint of any kind this Edge-Lock Scotch blue tape is a must. It's a must for water color painting. But on glass, craft or cathedal painting is made easier when making pure lines. Ofcourse for painting wall murals it's indespensable. Save yourself hours of extra work. It's a must in every artist studio.
I would recommend this to a friend!
