 fantastic tape for painting July 4, 2010

i used this tape to get my car ready for paint. i put it on prior to sanding just so i didn't sand any place i didn't want to. it sticks awesome, but not on rubber very well. it tends to run out fast as well so watch that you use every inch of it carefully, don't waste too much. other than that, it works great for blocking out paint/sand, etc. 3m makes some quality stuff.

If you've only ever used the beige masking tape, be prepared for a treat - this stuff really works. There are two main reasons for bleed-through - first make sure the tape is absolutely flat against the painting surface - any pucker, and you can be sure the paint will leak. Also, don't use a brush or a roller that has just been sitting in water without soaking up the water first. When the paint is thinned that much, you have a better chance of problems.
There are several very good reasons for not removing the tape right away. To me the most important is that if a second coat is needed, you don't have to remask, and you avoid the risk of not masking exactly in the same place. Also clean up is a lot less messy if the paint has already dried - for your hands, for the painting surface, the floor ... you get the idea.
I go through about a roll of tape every week or so (the four-pack from Amazon is really more economical). I've used it for normal wall painting, for masking designs painted on the walls and for working on canvas. Will never go back to the other stuff. Like any other tool - the tape is only as good as the person applying it - you still have to be careful with paint application.

We purchased this tape when we re-painted three rooms in our house. I researched the product and was really impressed by the safe release feature. I methodically taped-off all the rooms and proceeded to cut-in and paint the house. When I went to remove the tape several days later, I noticed that there was a significant amount of bleed-through. This meant we had to go back and cut-in all over again. Instead of saving time, it actually took us twice as long.
After catching a Home Improvement show on T.V. I discovered what went wrong: When using this tape you must remove it as soon as you finish painting the area (while the paint is still wet). You must also use caution and brush from the tape to the wall, not the wall to the tape. If you brush upwards toward the tape, some paint will leak through underneath.
It would have been very helpful to know this BEFORE I used this product.
If used properly, this product does work; however, if you do not know its secrets....look out.
