Scotch Delicate Surface Painter's Tape, 1.41 in x 60 yd, Purple, 4 Rolls

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.

This was the perfect tape for covering spots you don't want paint on. Comes off easy too.

[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 use this tape to cover a hardwood floor for my project and it was there for only 5 days when we finish our project we removed gently the tape and the tape came off with the clear of the hardwood floor and left the mark of the tape all around the house is not a good product

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!

This tape was horrible from start to finish. At first the tape wouldn't stick on the walls, then we couldn't get it off the walls. The paint bled right through the tape EVERYWHERE!!!! Also when we went to take the tape off the walls it took our paint right off the wall with it. It's a totally worthless product, it saved us no time because now we have to go back over everything.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I own a remodeling company. I bought two rolls of Edge-lock to paint a hallway and bedroom. On the hallway, I applied about 40 lineal feet of Edge-lock. At least 15 feet of it no longer adhered after about 1 hour. Plus, where it did adhere, there were numerous bleed throughs. I had to go back with wet Q-tips to clean up the bleeding. I thought this might be a fluke, so I used a new roll for the bedroom. Same problem. Terrible product.

[Employee of 3m-scotchblue] Used this to tape plastic to a smooth painted wood surface to protect a window from paint over-spray. We used this tape to protect the paint on the wood from damage. The surface was clean and dry and the tape was applied in 6-inch strips around the window. After an hour, the tape strips were peeling off and some were no longer adhering. Now, we have to re-tape the window (which is not an easy task from a high ladder!).

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product does not work.  I painted stripes on my son's bedroom wall several years ago with standard blue painter's tape and it came out perfect (blue & red picture).  He is moving to a new room and I wanted to replicate it without the red stripe and decided to upgrade to Edge Lock tape this time (blue & grey picture) -- it came out terrible!  Think I need to paint over it-- what a waste!!

I've been a Pro boat painter and varnisher for many years. Used 3M Blue tape for most of the years. It seems that the Blue is getting worse and worse. It leaves behind the adhesive and the requires extra work in detailing the boat. It is especially true on gel-coat and on sanded surfaces. If it is not detailed very thoroughly and carefully the dust and dirt will stick to the adhesive causing nasty looking tape width dark lines and irate calls from yacht owners. The extra time to detail is really a pain and unneeded extra expense for the owners or myself if it is a flat rate job. I'll be finding a new tape to use.
