Thank you for taking the time to post a Rating & Review on our ScotchBlue™ Painter's Tape Advance Multi-Surface. We would have expected the tape to remove cleanly, as long as it is removed from the surface up to 14 days after the application. We would appreciate the opportunity to speak with you to obtain specifics regarding the application. We have also sent you a postage paid label for the return of the tape. Thank you again for reviewing and we look forward to further assisting you.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The tape didn't perform as stated. It pulled off the painted surface and the paper backing on the drywall. The surface that pulled had received two coats of paint and the tape was left on 2 days.
I painted strips in my room. I was using a competitors product, but ran out and sent my husband to the store. He came home with scotch blue. It claimed to have the edge lock and wouldn't bleed. That was not the case, it bled along the entire edge. I had to spend hours touching up by hand. I had no bleeding with the competitors. It was in fact a side by side comparison and I was very disappointed. I have wasted my time and money with this product and its false claims of edge lock technology.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

So sorry to hear of the difficulty you had when using our Scotchblue(TM) Painter's Tape 2090EL. We would expect the ScotchBlue(TM) Painter's Tape 2090EL to produce the sharpest paint lines. We would like to discuss the application in more detail to see if we can determine the cause of the paint bleeding. We would like offer further assistance so please look for our direct email. We will ask a few application and removal questions, send a postage paid label to retrieve the product. Thank you for taking the time to post your review.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tape is great for painting tables and chairs in multiple sections. The lines will be sharp and clean. The tape comes off clean and will not damage the surface.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] @ScotchBlueBrand Blue tape worked great masking off a white undercounter TV to spray it black with Krylon Fusion paint!!
Good crisp edges and zero bleed. TV looks like it was always black.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a senior citizen and had not painted in years. My project turned out really well, thanks to Edge-Lock. I really like how easy it is to remove, and the clean line is terrific.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 1. It seemed to suck paint under the tape, so I got paint in my carefully prepped, just-refinished hardwood floors. 2. It pulled the paint off the 24-hours dry, freshly painted wall I applied it to. 3. It bonded to the wet paint applied and pulled off the new paint when I removed the tape. 4. It also pulled the paint off my sanded, deglossed, and primed furniture. Very badly. I thought it was the primer, until I did my walls. I believe I followed all the instructions, cleaning surfaces, firmly applying and pressing down tape, and removing tape after 1.5-2 hours. 3 very bad, very frustrating experiences. I am by no means a pro, but the painting I did with the regular scotch blue turned out fine. It's too expensive to be this terrible.
