Guests are saying
This tape has received mixed feedback from guests, with some praising its strong adhesion and versatility for various projects, including painting and labeling. However, many guests have expressed disappointment due to issues like paint bleed and the tape pulling off existing paint. While it can be effective for certain tasks, guests recommend caution and suggest testing it on less critical surfaces first to avoid potential damage.

removal was terrible, left glue all over.
We bought a 3 pack of this tape for use when we paint the bottom of our boat. we do this every year. we have always used Scotch 3M painters tape. This "Blue Original" #2090 is terrible! Yesterday we taped the boat, this morning we painted. This afternoon we "removed" the tape, or at least we tried to. it came off in little pieces. there is glue left all over the place. even little patches of blue buried in the glue!. Now what? Time to throw this away. PS... in the review it askes "On a scale of 0-10, how likely are you to recommend Scotch™ Painters Tape to a friend or colleague?*" Weel it wont let you pick 0-never even though it is a choice.

worse tape I've used in 50 years.
Bought a roll of this tape #2090 .Do yourself a favor and never buy this junk. Worse tape for painting I ever used. Tape doesn't stick to anything. I have no idea what Scotch is doing but they are making junk tape now...

It used to be great
I was a professional painter for over 10 years. I ALWAYS used the blue tape. I now only paint for family and friends and recently bought this absolute garbage tape and what an absolute waste of money. Trying to pull any length of tape and it rips in weird places. It's unusable in a hand masker. The worst tape on the market DO NOT BUY.

No clean lines- lots of bleed through
I recently painted a room and used this tape, and after I pulled it off the next day, the lines were far from crisp. I had to repaint all the trim as there was a lot of bleed through and/or the paint would go with it. I didn't get a single clean line. Would not recommend.

Worst Tape Ever
Tape dont stick to nothing. I cleaned everything and it still wont stick. Not even to plastic. Big waste of money and time having to go re tape everything over and over. Afraid when its finally time to paint its just gonna blow off and im gonna ruin everything I tried covering. I would never recommend this tape to anybody but their system wont let me go with 0/never only a one. LOL

Really useful in the classroom — would repurchase!
The wider size was great for labeling and bigger projects. Holds strong but still removes cleanly. Really useful in the classroom — would repurchase!

It works, it sticks but without peeling the paint on the wall.

No longer sticks
It does not work anymore. I have bought two rolls and both are worthless. I have multiple pieces on one sheet of paper and it will not stay up on my walls. I don’t know what changed in the last year or so, but the quality is atrocious.

Served its purpose. Allowed me to move items without taking them apart or separating during the move.

Horrible results when removing 2090 tape
I put this tape down over a quality primer and premium paint. It's horrible when removed. My work has doubled. I must go back and repaint. Just a bad product.

Horrible
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

Makes more work, not less.
I spent time applying this tape a couple hours ago to dry walls. When I went to take it off, it took off the paint from those walls! Now I have to repaint those areas and obviously can’t use this tape. Very disappointed.

Garbage
Tape doesn't adhere to the wall. Clean painted walls yet tape will not stay.

It's blue masking tape lol
So expensive. While it does a good job keeping paint from accidentally going on other paint. Doesn't bleed through. But not worth the price.

Not worth paying extra total rip off!
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!!!

Awful product
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.
