Review on ScotchBlue Pre-taped Painter's Plastic, Easy-to-Use 24x30 Yard Roll - PTD2093El-24-S by Joe Olson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

COMPLETELY USELESS FROM THE OUTSIDE!

Update. This item is completely unusable from the outside. It may be okay to tape the inside to something smooth like a baseboard (but why would you?). Outer small surface of the tape and no stickiness, the tape will be removed with a light breeze. I had to re-glue. Also when spraying, the tape began to peel off when wet with paint or with a spray jet. Lots of spots where splashes got under the tape. ENDLESS! BTW I also bought another product that came with a yellow tape (not 3M). I have had no issues with this product and will be using it to complete my home spray. It takes some getting used to. THE BAD - Difficult to unfold and glue at the same time. Standing on a ladder, it is very difficult to level, glue, glue and cut to length. The tape is TOO narrow to get good adhesion so I use masking tape first and then apply. As complex as it is, it's hard to find the beginning of the film to turn it around. In addition, the type of folding makes it easier to stick the film onto the adhesive tape. GOOD is a good width (2 feet) for most camouflage work. The foil is very thin and light, so it adapts easily. There seems to be a slight static cling to make it easier to stick the film on.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Empty
