Customer Reviews for 3M ScotchBlue 2.83 in. x 60 yds. Original Multi-Surface Painter's Tape (1 Roll)

Used this tape and it peeled all the way around my ceiling. So it was pointless to have even used it in the first place.

Destroyed everything it touched! It caused more damage than protection. It took off paint and chunks of the drywall.

Spent an hour using tweezers to remove torn tape from the corners where it stuck when trying to remove the tape and another hour repainting all the places where it peeled up large chunks of paint.

Absolute worst painters tape I have ever used. It will ruin every paint project you use it on. It will peel off paint even if it's not fresh and it rips so easily that you have to use a knife to get it off and it completely defeats the purpose. Wouldn't use this tape again even if it was free.

I took the tape. Put it on an empty sticker sheet. Then die cut it. This created a water tight stencil. Then I put the tape stencil on an envelope. Then I used red, yellow, green and blue water colors. I painted the envelope and let it dry. After it was completely dry. I removed the tape carefully. This created a beautiful image! I'm very happy with this tape!

I purchased this tape and it not pull clean like they advertised! it ruined some spots on my doors and now I have to repaint! I worked so hard taping up the areas of the door I wanted to paint in different colors. I worked very hard for this and it was ruined!

Literally the worst masking tape I've ever used should call it masochist tape because you'd have to be one to intentionally use it. When pulling the tape off it comes off in multiple tiny pieces, and the amount of bleed through on the edges is terrible. I'm going to have to literally repaint two walls because of it. Thanks for nothing

What is going on with this tape? I taped off the floor so I can paint my trim and when I followed the manufactures recommended method of removal it took the finish off my floor.

I bought this recently and it stained the carpet and ripped the paint off the trim in patches!!

I bought this to tape off trim on multiple furniture pieces i needed to paint. I taped, primed, then painted two coats on each piece. When I began removing the tape, I noticed a harsh line as well as wood stain coming off on the tape. I left it on less than 48 hours TOTAL, which doesn’t seem like an unrealistic period of time. I’m beyond unimpressed and wholly dissatisfied with this product… after putting 60+ hours into sanding and prepping and staining and painting this is unacceptable. If I was able to leave ZERO stars, I would! Never again!!!!!

Paint bleeds through when I ran out I used Bullfrog tape way better removal and protection from bleeds so scotchTape is bad tape

It says 6 rolls but only comes as 1 roll. Would have ordered a different one but the false label made me think this was a cheaper unit cost.

I recently painted over a wall that was very brightly colored. It took 3 coats of primer to cover it, then I followed with two coats of paint. I allowed proper drying time on all coats, and allowed it to cure at low humidity for a few days before moving on to the next wall. I taped up the cured wall to paint the next one, and when I removed the tape it pulled off the coats of paint and the primer to reveal the original color! This has put me behind in my project, and has created significantly more work for me. Next time I will buy something better quality.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given this product for free by 3M to review. I needed to do some drywall touchup, then paint over it. I put up some of this tape then did a couple layers of mortar, then a couple layers of paint. I had a great piece of mind knowing this tape would keep the other surface clean. After everything was dried this came off pretty easily. Overall it made the job much easier and quicker.

Supposed to not stick that's why it's painters tape next time I will buy the much cheaper masking tape I will never recommend or use this tape again

Had this giving to me to use at work on a painting project, Let me say I wound NEVER BUY nor recommend this product as it rips apart in splinter like fashion making tape removel a total nightmare! This is a product I would expect to find in some discount store let alone have what I thought was a good company in 3M!? Totally disappointed in how your product did not meet my expectations.

This stuff was garbage, a complete and utter waste of my money. Everywhere I used it the paint bled through. I’ve got paint on my baseboards, on my tile, I’ve got paint in my GROUT. I’m furious at the poor quality of this junk and that it ruined the last stage of my renovation. Stick to Frog Tape because 3M can’t make a decent tape anymore.

I don't do any job without scotch blue! The off brands just don't cut it, this stuff is the best!

Quite literally the worst tape I’ve ever used. Painted the trim and taped up our floors, tape ripped the paint right off when removing it from the floor. Very disappointed

Really terrible experience with this product, I wish I could return it. Tape-doff baseboards, walls, and ceilings when we painted our living room this weekend. It went on easy and came off even easier. Unfortunately, the paint went under the tape in multiple places, and now I don't have nice edge lines. My room is full of gobs of paint that penetrated the edge of the tape, I could have done better cutting in the edges myself with a brush! Don't waste your time and go with their green competitor.

I bought this tape to do my trim work and it ripped all my paint off!!! What a scam!!!!

This is the tape that I use for general purpose taping. For high grip or delicate surface needs, I'll grab something else. But this is what I use constantly, and not just for painting. It's great.

I used this tape to prevent the paint I was using from getting on the trim because I didn't want to paint the trim. I made sure all the edges were firmly pressed down. It didn't work. Now not only have I wasred my money and hours of my time on tape, I have to go buy some other tape and trim paint and waste a whole day painting trim. Very unhappy.

I built a guest house and painted the walls with Behr flat paint 10/20/22. Five days later after the paint had thoroughly dried, I taped off the trim and painted it. After about a day I removed the Scotch blue painters tape and the paint underneath came along with it. This is just painful. Never again.

By trying to save a little bit of money. I purchased his tape to paint my trim myself after hiring a professional to do the walls in my house. They were painted and possibly 30 days before I ever applied the tape to make sure that the paint had cured well enough. After approximately 3 days of painting my trim that I'd use the tape to achieve fine lines on I began removing it only to find that it was pulling the paint back off the walls that I just paid someone to do. I'm highly disappointed it would not recommend this for anyone.

I make small wooden boxes and I use the 3M tape for clamps. Works better than clamps and leaves no residue!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love using itwhen I paint, but also use it to temporarily stick notes on walls and doors. It removes with no residue or damage to the paint on the wall. Use in both and home and at work. Works really great.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works well. So far ive had no issues. It does not mess up the wall when i removed it. I will likely be purchasing this Scotch blue painters tape in the near future. Thank you 3M for allowing me to test this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tape is amazing. I had to paint my bathroom and I used it to keep from getting paint on my trim. It worked wonderfully. I put it down the side of the trim and not one bit of paint got all my trim. After everything was dry, it pulled right off with no problem.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This ScotchBlue Original painters tape works great at taping of things I don't want painted. It leaves a nice line after using and I don't have to worry about it leaving residue or sticking to the surface.
