The six rolls of roll one came to me in a package. Six years ago, I stacked 88-inch tape together as pictured, but it had been six years since. Whether or not they've changed anything since then is unknown to me. The shipping label says return is free, so if you only get one roll of paper you can return it for free.
Selected User Reviews For Scotch Painter's Tape 2020-48TP6 Scotch Contractor Grade Masking Tape, 1.88" Width, Tan
With an airless sprayer, we have been engaged in a large-scale painting project. Masking paper and plastic as well as covering smaller hardware have all been done with this tape. We haven't had a lot of damage upon removal though we apply it to walls and trim. So far it only has been the trim sides that have been affected. In comparison, its size is limited to a few millimeters wide by less than an inch long. Because we are using latex on oil trim, it most likely has to do with poor primer coverage. The whiteness of the surface made me very likely to miss a spot or go too bright. In our 4,060 square foot home, it will take no longer than 10 minutes to touch up all the damaged areas. The trim, doors, ceilings, shutters, and walls must all be painted. The tape we used for masking is 5 packs of this one, as well as many more for holding papers up, joining seams, etc. We have been using it on Amazon for a while. Our paint purchase at Home Depot led us to pick up even more products. The fact that this is half the price of frog tape makes it a very appealing option. There weren't any issues with bleeds either. The key is to press it firmly against If there is a bleed on the walls or ceilings then that is another matter. In general, you should run a #2 Phillips across the corners of the mask, as it will help knock down any texture. You won't be able to see it on the finished product. It would be faster and cleaner than running a bead of caulk first
I'm not a pro, just a home There are reports of issues in getting it off the roll, according to many reviews. Breaking on a roll has never been a problem for me. When I first cut it off from the roll (clean peel, not cut into it), I have to bite my nails to nothing so I can get it off. Both when it is passed back and when it is returned to When I want to rip smaller pieces, I keep the top of the strip stuck to the wall so I can tear it The only time I do a full trim in a room is when I'm not doing a full run in it.
Because I am a preschool teacher, I have a lot of decorations and artwork hanging on the walls in my classroom. As a Maryland State regulation, I am also not permitted to use staples in my classroom, but a bulletin board is necessary. Because of this, I must use thousands of tape rolls to cover my bulletin boards with paper, teaching materials, and, again, artwork from children. I have found that this tape is the best so far. The tape can be used to hold up even the heaviest bulletin boards for over a month, and probably even longer (if you use lots of it). As I mentioned, I use a lot of tape. I have about six rolls of tape, so I use roughly one a month. A great deal at a great price. For this price, I could only buy 4 or 5 rolls if I were to buy the rolls individually
Last but not least, it comes off of surfaces easily. The following materials are used walls, bulletin boards, laminate, tables There is nothing solid about them. There is still the possibility for paper to be torn. When I use it to hang children's artwork, I use a rolled piece of tape to attach it to the wall after applying a protective piece of tape to the paper. There are no words to express how wonderful this tape is. Innumerable improvements have been made to my teaching life as a result.
The only way I could rate this tape zero stars is to not rate it. The only problem is, I can't get the tape off of the rolls because the brand I trust is so strong. Trying to pull off a piece for use causes the fabric to tear as I attempt to do so. Over the last 20 years, I have never had any issue with masking tape until I purchased this roll. Please do yourself a favor and buy another tape. I cannot believe that anyone left a positive review for the tape. I guess it must be due to different batches or similar reason. There was no way someone could give me a positive review for the garbage I received. My first thought was that it was a knockoff product, since it was of such poor quality.
It's important to leave a little bit free or fold it on itself, but I forget to do that most of the time and end up cursing at the roll with a small pile of bits of tape. Not only is the gluey residue in the air quite horrendous, but it's also very messy. A half hour after the tape was placed, I removed it. The wand is supposed to be able to be removed completely after 3 days, right? Please do not wait longer than 3 days to buy it if you plan to buy it. To think of the sticky mess left to clean up makes my skin crawl.
I bought this a few months ago and something changed since then. The last time was just over a year There is not a single piece that can be torn AIM TO NEVER. I always damage the pieces when I split them into two or three And / or you get those infuriating little strips on the side that you have to pry off with your fingernails. The off-brand I bought was cheaper I bought Amazon brand last time, so why did I not stick with it? I was so much happier with the way it worked and the value it offered.
Almost every time that you remove it from its roll, it will tear as you remove it. Once you get it off the roll, it makes a decent masking tape. This leads to the need to spend extra time picking up that ripped strip and returning it to the rest of the strip only to have it Despite the fact that it works, it is a little bothersome. In general, it works just fine if you unroll, cut, and reroll it all the time. The quality of the product is below average.
Buying too much will cause you to spend more money than you can use in about six It is impossible to peel off the first three or four layers of tape without tearing them. The pain that that can cause is well known to you. By six months from now, I expect a much worse situation.
My five-star rating goes beyond that, I will be buying more. I still have a lot left from my first purchase, but with such good tape I will stock up on it for my future DIY projects, it sticks to carpet nicely and stays in place. I definitely recommend this tape.
