Review on 🎨 3M Safety Scotch Artist Tape, 10-Yard x 3/4-Inch, Low Tack (FA2020), White by Hannah Curi

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Low tack as advertised but too low for stretching watercolor paper

I bought this for stretching watercolor paper and fixing fine art paper. It's low tack so I had to use more to keep the sketch paper in place. Not the best tape for stretching watercolor paper. It was difficult to dry the edges of the paper enough for the tape to adhere. Works well enough, but I'll try a better quality artist tape next time. It leaves a small sticky mark on stretched watercolor paper, but that's better (since it can be covered with a matte cardstock) than tape tearing the paper.

Pros
  • Acid free, photo safe, no wrinkles
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
