Worst Tape Ever

This is the worst tape - it took forever to put it on - then even longer to take it off. It was $2.00 more than the "generic" brand and not worth the extra money. We've painted a bathroom using this tape - I have more the 3/4 of the roll left - I'm throwing it away. So disappointed - don't waste your money. I wish it was possible to rate with zero stars.
It stinks. Paint seeps under it and it doesn't pull off cleanly in one piece.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Really only sticks to itself. Lifts after 15 min. allowing seepage for areas you reach after the first 15 min of the job. Very disappointed, particularly in view of cost.
I purchased Scotch Blue #2093EL for the first time. I was in the final stages of completing an art cabinet for my daughter, which included numerous colors. I painstakingly put the tape on 4 drawers fronts for her to paint. When the paint was dry, I removed the tape. I noticed that most of the edges had a very thin blue line remaining. The tape is falling apart. What a pain in the butt. I don't know how I am going to remove all of these little pieces of tape. I might have to sand the whole thing and start over. GRRRRHHH!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love ScotchBlue Painter's Tape! We just painted our dining room and it made it SO much easier. And for once we didn't get bits of paint all over the baseboards. Thanks Scotch for making painting the rooms in our house so much easier!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] we recently had redone our living room. And this tape was the best for different surfaces. We had painted walls, molding, paneling, and a poly floor. And it work awesome in all the right places. Many thanks for this. I always hated rubbing out tape residue or refixing straight lines! Love you guys!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product free from 3M and it came at the perfect time. Hubby picked up an old, wooden sled at a country auction - it needed some love.
I decided to paint the runners but needed to ensure I didn't get any paint on the old, dry wood. It took a while, but I sealed off all of the wood anywhere near the runners with this painter's tape. After 24 hrs, I removed the tape and was very happy to see that there wasn't any bleeding. Only the runners were painted and the wood retained its character. Thank you so much!
