Not sharp by any means
I gave this painters tape a 2 for stickiness but my god, sharp this tape is not. Every line i taped, paint bled through. So now I have to buy new tape to repaint areas white where this bled. I’m mad i still have two rolls to use up.

      Does not stick

        Garbage
        Hi, just wanted to let you know your product is 100 percent garbage. You’ve wasted my time as I spent all day taping only to find the next day, that the tape un-stuck. You should be paying me for my wasted time. I should have never used your garbage product and I will forever hate yoi.

          Garbage
          I bought this to save a couple bucks over frog tape and I instantly regretted it. The adhesive is weak! Used it to mask off the interior of windows to paint window trim with an airless sprayer and the spray pressure caused it to come off and I got paint all over the window. I spent over an hour cleaning the window, going back to the store for frog tape then remasking. Learn from my mistake and stick to proven frog tape.

            does not unroll without tearing
            We purchased 2 rolls for our home. The tape tears in strips so 2" tears to less than 1/8".

              Tape is now plastic. Hard to tear.
              I only have bought this because they were out of the regular blue tape. It was never very easy to tear but now it's worse, it's made out of plastic. Unless you're pinstriping cars nobody needs that thin a tape. Your instructions to leave the tape on till the paint dries is incorrect. If you leave it on when it dries anything except dead flat paint will pull off the upper fresh paint layer. The way to paint is make sure the paint the tape is firmly down, brush or roll over it w paint pull the tape off and continue the wall.

                Doesn't stick to anything let alone seal out paint
                This doesn't stick to the walls, trim, glass, or even itself! I put it on only to look 5 mins later and it is dangling off the wall. How is it supposed to keep out paint if it's not even on the wall!?

                  Worst Tape In The Entire World!!
                  I bought several rolls of this tape to cover newly refinished trim in the hopes of preventing hours of cut in time when I paint my walls. The tape doesn't stick to the trim nor will it stick to itself when overlapped! I spent hours taping four large windows, trim around three doors and the baseboard to realize I need to do it all over again!

                    Worst product ever - stay away!
                    This tape is horrible. It won’t stick to any surface. It claims to stick for 21 days, You’ll be lucky to get 21 minutes.

                      Terrible
                      I have used 3m painter's tape for years and never had such a terrible time applying tape as I have today. I cleaned all baseboards before applying the tape. After applying the tape throughout part of the room, I noticed some of the tape coming off the baseboards. I redid those areas and continued taping the room. Before I could finish, more tape was coming off in multiple areas. I have wasted my time.

                        Worst Tape I Ever Used! Shame on 3M for Garbage
                        I bought three rolls of this tape and it would not stick to anything. It wouldn't even stick to itself. I was so mad, I threw it all away. They make some really great tapes but this stuff is worse than the old yellow masking tape. DO NOT BUY THIS. WASTE OF $$$

                          Tape keeps lifting, does not stick well
                          This is honestly the worst tape I have ever worked with. It is constantly lifting up on its own. I would have been better with no tape at all. Very disappointing from 3m as I use a lot of their products and this one does not have the quality that others have.

                            Doesn't stick
                            When I bought a name brand tape I expected for it to stick. I'm repainting my car and the tape doesn't hold the paper to the metal. That's what I get for expecting quality from a name brand. Should have bought the cheap stuff.

                                nice edge, residue left behind
                                I give it credit for holding an edge and sticking well, but everywhere I used it the adhesive stayed on the surface when I pulled it off after only 1 day. Using it on a boat deck, where yes it is hot and sunny, but still I expected to get a couple of days before removing the tape. Now I have a huge project to remove all the adhesive everywhere I taped.

                                  Worst tape I have ever used
                                  Bought three rolls of this tape to paint a simple bedroom. I masked off the trim the night before so that I could cut in in the morning and the tape had fallen right off the wall over night. Thought it might be a dirty wall, but it did the same thing the next day when I ntapred off a freshly painted wall. Will find a different tape next time.

                                    I within seconds of me putting the tape on the wall, it started to peel off. I had re-tape multiple times which took forever. I highly recommend not buying this product.

                                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The tape adheres really well and gives you a nice straight line when needed, works well separating sheens such as in a kitchen to a dining area as long as the surface is clean then you're rockin' it!

                                          “Sharp lines” is the world’s most incorrect statement. Worse than real painter’s tape. May as well have free handed the entire paint job.

                                              Does the job
                                              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got a roll of this free from 3M to use and review. It was perfect timing since we were looking to paint a room in preparation of our third child coming. The ceiling didn't need to be done though so using this tape was perfect to keep the line neat and clean. It worked well and there was no bleed through.

                                                Taped up my living room last night... woke up this morning to nearly all tape lifted and no longer adhered to the trim, walls, etc. All my lines need to be redone... What a huge waste of time and money. I wouldnt use this tape if it was given to me for free!

                                                  Looks like a pro painted the dining room
                                                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I finally got to use my painter's tape during my dining room renovation. It was easy to put up on the ceiling before painting the walls. It gave sharp crisp lines with no bleeding and came off just as easily. Most important, it did not remove the paint on the ceiling I had just completed. I will definitely use this tape again. I received this product last month in exchange for my unbiased opinion.

                                                      I use painter's tape everyday. I bought this by accident because someone placed it in the wrong place in the store and I was in a hurry and didn't look close enough. When I realized what I had done I thought it might be really good. I was wrong!! Ruined my project, wouldn't stick, as soon as paint hit the edge it rolled up and the paint bled underneath horribly. Then when I realized it wouldn't work it pulled the paint up as I pulled it off. Horrible product!!!!

                                                        It’s supposed to be good for 21 days. I went 8 or 9 and pulled off the paper and left all the glue. Have to use a razor blade to get the paper off. I planned on starting brushwork but now I have to spend a day with acetone trying to get the glue off everywhere. Put my whole project back a day and I can’t spare the time and don’t appreciate spending 6-8 hours scrubbing glue. Horrible product. Don’t buy it. Tell your friends and retailers.

                                                            More like outside the lines!
                                                            we bought this tape just the other day. I used it to protect the door trim and baseboards. It was pretty easy line up just right but adhered a little too well. When i went to peel it off, it took paint off the trim and peeled big sections of the brand new wall paint off with it too... Now I have to go back and repaint without tape.
