Summary of reviews
The product is a painter's tape designed to aid in clean painting projects by creating sharp lines and preventing paint bleed. While some guests found the tape effective for labeling and temporary fixes, a significant number experienced issues with the tape not sticking properly, paint seeping under the tape, or the tape damaging surfaces upon removal. The mixed experiences suggest that while the tape can be useful, it may not perform consistently across different surfaces and conditions.

Bought this about a month ago. Tried to use it on a freshly painted wall when I was touching up the trim. It will not stick to wall. It won’t even stick to itself. 3M is a trusted company. Very disappointed

I paid almost double figuring I was going to get the best. What I got was the peeling of my walls and ceiling while painting my trim. I didn’t even leave the tape on for more the 10 hours. So very disappointed now I have to pay more money to repaint ceiling & walls! So mad!!!

I love blue tape! With a little strip and a sharpie, I label all kinds of things…leftovers in fridge, storage boxes, pantry jars, posting reminders… Holds on and easy to remove. Of course, it’s also great for painting. Target has best price.

Do yourself a favor and buy the more expensive tape. This removed paint off the surface so now I have to go back and paint again. Trash!

Scotch Brand is the best blue painters tape at Target. Other brands tear too easily and don’t adhere well to surfaces. I know I can always count on Scotch Brand to be consistent and work the way it should. It costs more, but in the case you get what you pay for.

I wish I read the other reviews first. Used all Benjamin Moore paint. Two coats of primer, two coats of paint. Let the ceiling dry two weeks than taped it to paint the walls. Tape was up less than 5 days. Every single piece of tape I pulled off took paint off the ceiling. Instead of being near completion, I now have hours of work to skim a band around the edge of my ceiling, prime it, then paint it. I would have been better off not using any tape than using this product. It’s absolute garbage. If anyone is reading this, save yourself time and money and buy something else, anything else (or don’t tape at all - even that will be better than using this junk).
Good

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 heard so much about this tape so I bought it and used it. I loved how easy it was to put on which is why I gave it 3 stars. I didn't like how hard it was to take off. It kept breaking off into pieces. I will say I didn't get paint anywhere.

Felt compelled to take the time to review painters tape as this is the most ineffective product. Bought because the store was out of our normal green tape and the clean up from the damage from the tape took more time than painting the walls. It peeled the existing paint, so much it left damaged drywall. Conversely some how, the tape did not stick to the edge of the moulding bleeding the paint underneath. Super sloppy and better to just attempt free hand with a toddler

I bought this a few months ago and go to use it and I can't even peel the full width without it tearing! Sometimes it tears an 1/8" wide before I can lift more of the edge up. My finger nails can't even grab it right. Read the reviews and I don't think this one was a dud. Sounds like quality has changed. I will be going back to Frog Tape.

Worst painters tape I've ever used. Peeled off paint and even drywall paper off of both freshly painted (over 24 hour dry time) and walls that had been primed and painted for over a year. Will have to redo the entire room but with frig tape this time.
