Scotch Exterior Surface Painter's Tape was developed for outdoor painting projects for when you need a tape that can handle wind, rain, humidity, and direct sunlight. This innovative poly-tape is different than standard 3M paper painter's tapes, it conforms to curves, tears straight for fast cornering, and best of all, removes from the surface without tearing or slivering. Use it outdoors on smooth and semi-smooth metal, vinyl, painted wood, and glass. Scotch Exterior Surface Painter's Tape holds to exterior surfaces for up to 10 days in all kinds of challenging weather and then removes easily without leaving any sticky residue behind.
  • Use-on surfaces: designed for use on exterior surfaces such as smooth and semi-smooth metal, vinyl, painted wood, and glass
  • Days clean removal: 10-day exterior Clean removal leaves behind no damage or sticky residue. Not intended for interior use.
  • Removal: Innovative poly-tape is weatherproof and provides tear-free removal off the surface and 90-degree snap tear off the roll
  • RECOMMENED FOR: Humid conditions
  • Adhesive level: very strong
  • Backing: paint flake resistant and weatherproof
  • Performance: UV and sunlight resistant
  • Size: 1.88 in. x 45 yd.
  • Pack out: 1 roll/pack
  • Sustainability: Made from 14% renewable resources; Adhesive made with natural rubber; Tape made in a site certified for energy management (ISO 50001 certified); Core made with 70% post-consumer waste
  • Application tips: for great paint results make sure the surface is clean, dry, and dust-free so that the tape sticks properly; next, apply the tape onto the surface while pressing down firmly as you go; and lastly, let the tape set for about 30 to 60 minutes before painting
  • Removal tips: wait until the paint is dry to the touch before removing the tape; lift it up by slowly pulling it back on itself, then removing at a 45-degree angle

Answer This Question

A:  Yes. The secret is firm, dry surface application. I've use this tape on various types of wood and concrete with good success. I make sure the surface is clean and free of loose debris. In colder temps, I use a heat gun on low (a hairdryer will work) while applying moderate pressure to ensue a good seal. Numerous times I have used this tape to temporarily weather seal doors, windows (from the outside), even exterior weather damaged wood throughout several months of wet and dry conditions with temperatures ranging from 45 degrees Fahrenheit to 105 degrees Fahrenheit without fail or a problem with removal.

        Q:would this be good for freshly painted interior walls that no other painter's tape will adhere to?

        Answer This Question

        A:  Yes, especially enamel paint, that is the worst to try to adhere to.

          A:  Probably, because I think its stickier. Oh, it's bright yellow and easy to see as well.

            A:  Hi Kim, I would NOT recommend using this on freshly painted walls of any type. The Scotch delicate surface tape would be better suited for your purpose.

            A:  3M Scotch tape products are EXCELLENT. Humidity and circulating air always determine the adhesion of tape. The 3M brand doesn't pull up paint. applies easy, little pressure, smooth edge, removes easy.

            by|Sep 20, 2019

              A:  This tape should not be used on freshly painted walls, as the wet paint will Adhere to the sticky part of the tape. If the paint is completely dry, any painters tape should be able to stick to it.

                A:  Hello Kim, I'm not clear on what "other painter's tape" you've tried but this an exterior tape that has strong adhesion with easy removal. I personally would not use it on freshly painted interior nor exterior surfaces. I'd advise asking the department pro (or local paint shop) what interior painter's tape they recommend other than the ones you've tried. It may just be an application issue. If you have no other choice, first test it on a small, inconspicuous spot.

                by|Jul 16, 2021

                  A:  I wouldn’t recommend it. Despite being exterior rated, I found the holding power less than interior and it wouldn’t hold a line well either. Ask someone in the paint department for a recommendation on the best tape for your job.

                          Product works well for exterior projects. I spray painted my entire house using this tape. Worked well on wood, aluminum; downspouts, window wrap, soffits. Easy to remove didn't damage anything. Also, held up for days during rain.

                          STRIPPED OFF MY METAL AROUND MY DOOR
                          I used this tape to tape off the area around my storm door in order to paint a small wood frame. When I removed this tape not even 12 hours after painting, this tape took off my factory baked-on finish around my storm door. Beware this tape is not safe for metal like it states. I am filing a complaint.

                            Does NOT release from painted wood
                            VERY DISAPPOINTED Even though this products says it may be applied to painted wood, I learned my lesson the hard way. After applying the tape around a door I was planning to paint, I had to reposition an area and found the tape would NOT release without removing paint from the surrounding frame
