I must be doing something wrong, because this tape worked no better than the blue painter's tape you get at the hardware store. I still had plenty of leaks underneath the tape - no matter how carefully I applied and pressed it down. Last night, I taped the room for the stripes I was painting and by this morning, the tape was curling up and almost falling off in some places.

One bright spot in the first mess with this tape was that I did discover a very easy and almost foolproof way to get crisp lines for my stripes. I found this tip online. After taping the wall, put a small bead of clear caulk on your finger and wipe the edge that you will be painting. After that, take a barely wet cloth and wipe the edge clean so that there is no visible caulk. Let it dry and then paint your edge. The tiniest bit of caulk that is left under the tape edge is not visible, but prevented the paint from leaking under the tape. It really works great!

We are remodeling our kitchen. I saw this tape at Home Depot and a local paint store. Then I did some research online and bought a roll of 1",1-1/2" and 2" to use on my kitchen project. I did my own test with some 3M blue painter tape too. Product does what is says,best painters tape ever. The 3M Blue tape did not do the job I had to clean the paint off the wood work along the edge. What a pain!

Frog Tape also comes in a plastic case that protects the roll when you drop it on the floor on the job site.
This is the only painter tape I will buy or use.

Not worth the money. If the area you are taping is not perfectly flat or smooth, paint will bleed through. I bought the 1, 1.5 and 2 inch tape for the re-painting of my dining room. I taped the chair rail and bottom molding. I also used it to tape off the ceiling as well, I like clean lines. Well, this worked no better than the blue stuff. I used a good ammount of pressure on laying down the tape as it suggests, and certain sections just bled through, this may have been areas that were not perfectly smooth, but not visible to the naked eye. Save your money and use the blue tape, no discernable difference.
