Pulled off flat satin paint
on May 15, 2016
Posted by: paint_redo_pains
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought the 2093EL from your standard box store...we applied to our walls with the hope of creating clean lines between other walls and the ceiling. All the walls (including ceiling) were previously professionally painted about two weeks ago. We tackled what we thought was an "easy room". We prepped the walls, taped, primed, then began painting. The tape was on the wall ~30hours and on the ceiling maybe 6 hours. In the photos are the result of taking the tape off (with using a scoring knife). The walls had the prior paint taken off near the edges, the ceiling pretty much any surface the tape touched. The ceiling had no texture and just a regular flat, white interior latex paint. Pretty disappointed since we just had the ceilings and other walls professional painted...
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not good. Use the old tape.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought 2 new rolls of scotch blue 2093EL. I taped the room in the morning, taping over paint that had dried for about 36 hours. I came back 4 hours later to paint. Most of the tape had pulled away from the wall. I re-seated most of it, but had to hold off on painting until the next day. Regrettably it pulled away again. I pulled all of it off and retaped with Scotch blue original 2090 which I have used for years without any problems. I will stick with the original scotch blue from now on. .

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Use this tape on Primed drywall around my windows, doors and floor moulding and it pulled the paper off the dry wall in numerous spots. Now I have to go back and spackle all the spots

not the old quality...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What happened? I started with an "old" roll of 2090 Scotch-Blue that I had for a project last year.Well, I couldn't pull more than 8 - 12 inches before it tore itself in that infuriating "V". This hadn't happened with your tape before - the cheap brands, yes it happens all the time. Thought it was just old, so I opened a brand new Scotch-Blue 2093 roll. The same thing happened. Not only that, but I couldn't get the pieces to stick together as I masked off the door frame. I've been doing my own DIY painting for over 40 years and the new stuff just isn't the same quality as the old khaki colored masking tape available at the corner hardware store. Just saying...
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thanks for taking the time to share your review on our ScotchBlue™ Painter's Tape Multi-Surface. We apologize for the frustration you've experienced with our tape. The formula for this adhesive hasn't changed and we wouldn't expect the kind of slivering you're seeing on these rolls. We'd like the opportunity to make this right with either a refund or a replacement. If you're interested, please email socialmedia@mmm.com with a full name and mailing address along with your resolution preference. Please include case number 6492457 in the subject line. Thank you!

Very Disappointed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this tape to mask off the ceiling when I painted the walls. I taped one night and went to paint the next day, a lot of the tape had come unstuck. After starting over again I was disappointed when the "edge lock" failed, I had to go around the room and touch up the ceiling in too many places. Also I used it to mask of a window frame and it would not even stay stuck to it. I have used blue painters tape for years and I was excited to try this tape and even paid more than the competitor to try it. I don't like it and I am not likely to use it again.

Does not work!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been in the process of painting of my house for over a year, I have tried a variety of tapes and was always recommended to use the Scotch Blue, however, no matter how hard I try to get it "sealed" on the edges, I wind up with paint splotches and leaks preventing any shred of a straight line and hours of work ahead of me to correct it :(.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

EDGE LOCK? I DON'T THINK SO - GARBAGE
on February 10, 2016
Posted by: Remodeler

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] bought this tape specifically for the "edge lock" so we could get nice crisp lines but ended up with lots of bleed through and the tape peeling up before i even finished. Surface is a textured painted wall in the living room, surface was prepped (dusted and wiped before taping) and tape was laid flat not pulled tight. Then I went over the edge again, making sure to push the tape firmly to seal the edge against the texture. By the time I got to the other end of the wall - (30 mins) the tape was peeling up from the edge, I reapplied pressure to the edge of the tape but still got bleed through. I ended up correcting the problem by simply cutting in the edge by hand - this tape is garbage. Definitely not worth their premium price - the cheap masking tape works best, lesson learned.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Caused Damage
on February 7, 2016
Posted by: CJHA

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For some reason this tape either ripped the paint off my trim, or when I was trying to remove the tape, the tape would rip where there was paint on it. Then, I had to pick at the remaining tape and break my nails to get it off. At one point I had to use a razor blade to get the remaining tape off. We just had our windows and trim professionally painted, so now it all needs fixed. Never again. I went online to see if maybe this type of tape wasn't supposed to be used on trim, but it clearly states that it works great on trim and doesn't cause damage.
