Frog TapeOrange Gloss & Satin Painters Masking Tape 24mm x 41.1m, Indoor Painting and Decorating For Sharp Lines and No Paint Bleed

So pleased with this tape. I was paining a mirrored dresser with a wooden frame, this tape was exceeded my expectations, no paint seeped or leaked onto the mirrors. Would recommend

Got the other 2 colours and types, so. Had to get this to add to the collection. All good, and good price and quality.

Brilliant decorating tape, much better than using standard masking tape. Really sticks to the carpet very well. Definitely would buy it again when needed.

Great stuff. Makes painting with a good finish a doddle. Helps with the sharp lines. Remember to run your finger firmly over the edge which will get wet to ensure its well fixed.Found it peels a little bit of the matt paint off so keep your paint handy to touch up once the tapes removed.

I cannot rate this tape highly enough. I have to admit I was sceptical, this isn’t cheap. But I read reviews and it appeared to be worth a gamble. I had new carpet fitted 3yrs ago (I decorated before!!). However, having had lodgers, walls etc have taken a battering so I needed to bite the bullet. Knowing with satin wood there’s no going back on carpet, this had to work!! Stair carpet was thoroughly hoovered and prepared in order to maximise adhesive benefit!! Carefully and painstakingly the tape was laid tight up against the edge of the carpet to enable close detailing of the adjacent stair string. All done, I commenced painting. I didn’t go crazily over the tape, but a number of times I went over the edge... I am no professional decorator!! I left the tape in place to allow for two coats and allowing sufficient time to dry... I gingerly removed tape and with huge relief I can say only a minor bleed on one small section of a step. Now this I know was my fault as upon closer inspection this was the first step and this didn’t go down as tightly as I should have done. But for 13x steps on two sides this is pretty impressive. I used the standard frog tape for hard flooring, and again incredibly good. But hands down this stuff works and is far superior to anything else I have tried with before!

This masking tape is good but does the same job has any other cheap tape.

Painting internally

Bought this tape because I wanted to paint my skirting boards which this is what the tape is for. Stuck to the wall fine but was useless and the paint bled through as you can see by my photos. No nice edges for me, should of done I freehand, would of got a better line. Very disappointed!!
