A:  I JUST USED MY FINGERNAILS, I ALSO CUT A SMALL SLIT ON THE BLUE TAPE THIS SEEMS TO HELP GET IT STARTED SEPARATING.

    A:  When cutting this tape, remember to use a very sharp pair of scissors or a utility knife. This ensures a clean usable edge. Once a strip has been cut to size, begin a corner removal of the blue release liner prior to placement onto the floor. Repeat to each piece. Once all pieces have been place, pull each corner starter point of the release liner.

            Waste of Money
            Do not normally write negative reviews of products but in this instance am making an exception. This product is so bad am hoping will help others avoid the frustration. Purchased both the 2-1/2" and 3" wide for a total of $31.64. After following the installation instructions, for additional assurance placed some weight on the edge of the rug to keep it flat. After a couple of hours removed the weight and within a few minutes the rug curled back up. Obviously the tacky side for the carpet doesn't adhere. Going to return whatever is left to Home Depot and hope they will give me my money back. I think rolling up Duct Tape will work better.

              Works as advertised
              Works nicely did 30 steps with this roll using 3 strips back to front under each thread. It does not stick the threads firmly but porvides a tacky surface to stop them slipped. Works nice now not sure how it will age.

              Works Well
              Yes - this DOES work on carpet over carpet. Living in a carpeted rental apartment, I have a few oriental runners and small rugs to protect heavy traffic areas. Got tired of bending down to straighten them every couple of days as they'd slowly collide with and ride up adjacent walls. This tape seems to do the trick. I doesn't fasten the rug to the floor, it provides just enough traction to keep it from moving around much. The blue backing is easy to remove if you grab a corner of the tape and yank til it stretches and separates. I used a giant lint roller to clean bottom sections of the rug before applying the tape.

                For everyone asking if this works on carpet, the answer is YES it does. I just moved to an apartment where I have more carpet than I have had in many many years. With one dog and two cats, I had to do something. I bought several washable throw rugs to put around and of course they were bunching up and were basically death traps. Yesterday I taped them down. I just taped down the perimeters, because I will pick them up and wash them once a month or two. I anticipate using fresh tape each time, which I don't think is a big deal. I tested what comes up with the tape, a little bit of fuzz from the carpet but not bad. Maybe my expectations were lower than the other bad reviews I read, they aren't pulled absolutely smooth, but they stay put and aren't bunching up. I put my yoga mat over the big one and did yoga this morning and the rug stayed put. I'm super pleased with this tape. I did a lot of research and am glad I picked this one.

                  Easy to use, effective and keeps me from going crazy everytime the carpet corner flips. A friend of mine recommended using painters tape under it when adhering to laminate to avoid leaving a sticky residue. Haven't removed it, but figured I'll share the tip.

                  Love this tape
                  I have stairway treads, hallway runner, Dinning room and living room rugs. I've tried everything with my dog who constantly moves my rugs by running. This product does the job well the rugs stay still and do not budge I would highly recommend this product. I would buy the bigger roll and make sure you use enough to keep the rugs in place.

                    First time user. Worked perfectly. Need to tape down rug pieces on 32 steps. Had them on 2 weeks now & working perfectly. Need a quick fix and this did it. Taped the rug pieces to a wood step, 32 of them to 2 floors. Exceeded our expectations.

                    Roberts Rug Gripper was used to keep vinyl floor mats from moving on a carpeted floor. The product helped but the mats still move around with normal foot traffic. The product does not keep the corners of the mats from curling up and creating a tripping hazard. One feature that I do not like is that the product is to be secured first to the floor and then the mat or rug is placed on top. This makes it difficult to position the tape properly. The tape was placed under one mat about one week ago as an experiment. As I said, the Rug Gripper helps somewhat to prevent the doormats from sliding around but this is not a long-term solution. Velcro hooks with an adhesive backing might work better but it doesn't come in the 2-1/2" width and is generally sold along with the loops (which wouldn't be needed for carpet.)
