71303 Essentials Masking Tape for Paint Craft Trade and DIY 2 inch 50M roll

The missus lost this before I'd even had a chance to use it. I'm sure it would have been very good

I don't often give one-star reviews. There is usually something good to say. In this case, one star is generous if you were expecting a masking tape that would remove from the surface to which it was applied. Gaffer tape would have been easier to get off than this stuff. I guess all I will be able to use it for is labels for jars or tins in my shed. I am certainly not going to use it as masking tape having lost over an hour of my life scraping it shred by a shred from 14 metres of paint.

Used for acrylic 'hard-edge' paintings. If burnished adequately, there is no 'bleed', nor any problems when removing the tape - painted surfaces all remained perfectly intact. Would buy again.

Leaves a very tacky residue on peel, I'm lucky my first use was to paint on a an art piece that the remaining glue issue can be fixed. I cannot use the remaining rolls for my usual purpose on watercolour paper as it would ruin final result, neither can I use it for painting walls. The tacky residue would pick up all kinds of dust on skirting. Which leaves me with 2.90 rolls of trash.On top of all this it doesn't even keep out all the paint and bleeds through underneath horrendously.Definitely DO NOT buy.

I was dubious about buying this tape after reading some of the reviews but it goes to show you can’t always trust them. I’ve painted my dining room and kitchen and used this tape to keep my skirting boards lovely and clean. Worked a treat. As you can see from the sample picture from my dining room it has left lovely straight lines after I pulled the tape off.Comes off very easily and doesn’t rip. Very good value for money!

Bought for decorating. Didn't peel off into little bits like other tapes can. Paint didn't bleed through and removed tape without damage to the paint or walls. Arrived really quickly and for a good price

Cheapest option I could ever find and quite good quality , the thing is it’s too sticky , always peel my painting paper off … even After I stick it on my clothes first then put it on the paper but it still peeled my paper out after I finished painting .

. . . without overkill. Bought for general use, and to border 280 gsm watercolour paper when painting. Edges don't bleed, paper doesn't tear (pull off horizontally and at right-angles), and doesn't leave any residue. Good value.
