    Frustrated frequent buyer
    We always use blue masking tape when doing projects, but this time we upgraded to the more expensive FrogTape which caused much frustration. After painting with Sherwin Williams high end paint, then attempting to use FrogTape to protect it while painting baseboards several weeks later, the paint was pulled off in multiple places. We are extremely disappointed and frustrated.

        Great tape for piñatas
        We had some tape left over from when we painted our children’s rooms a few months ago. When I needed something to hold a piñata together, I found this tape. It has a really good hold. I’ll be using it for my new found hobby. THANK YOU.

          Amazing lines and waves!
          I my last painting job I used a different brand and the lines were not sharp. This time I used Frog Tape and it is fantastic!

            Cabinets
            The surface of my cabinets came off when I removed the tape. I removed the tape immediately after pairing the wall.

              It added work
              I used it to touch up my baseboards. It pulled off my existing paint. The existing paint is about 10 months old. Quarantine project. I pulled the tape off within about 10 minutes.

                Poor tape
                I bought this thinking this tape would help me with straight lines but after I used it and pulled it off it took the paint with it completely ruining the paint job. DO NOT BUY THIS TAPE.

                  Major paint bleed
                  I thought that frog tape was the so called "best", well my experience was a nightmare. I taped out the trim and ceiling of my guest bathroom, painted, and when I thought I was finished. I pulled the tape off and every where, looks like the photo shown. I'm going to have to redo the whole room.

                    Terrible, do not use!
                    We used this frog tape on a green painted wall to ensure that when painting the adjacent wall we got clean lines. The green paint had been dry for two weeks. However, when removing the tape it pulled off all three coats of green paint! We now have to re paint ...again! This also occurred on a border that hadn't been painted for over 3 years and the same thing happened. Frogtape is expensive and does not do the job it states.

                      does NOT live up to expectations
                      I recently touched up the baseboards in my front hallway. This tape removed paint from the walls and I have some unsightly bleeding that I'm going to have to deal with. This should have been an easy project that just doubled in magnitude. Would not recommend, or use again.

                        Do not buy!
                        I want to make a complaint about your product. My husband and I flip houses so as you can imagine we paint a lot! We have been using frog tape as suggested as it is advertised to not Peel paint. Well every time we use your tape, it ripes the paint off the walls!!! We never leave the tape on more than an hour and every time, it lifts the paint, even if the paint is weeks old!! We spend thousands on paint and tape to get a bad result with your product. I will be sure to leave bad review's on every site I can that sells your product unless you want to get back to me with a proper solution. Frog tape is not cheap so this is a real disappointment. Did you change your products? Does your tape not work with certain paints?? Looking forward to your reply.

                          This sucks!
                          I bought this the other day to tape my trim. It took the paint off my trim. After days of painting, I now need to patch MANY areas to fix them bc of this awful tape. I will never use this again. I will never recommend it. I will tell everyone how awful this is.

                            Horrible tape!!!!
                            I purchased a steak for the second time the first time it worked fine but the second time I could’ve painted better straight lines without even using the tape. I’m not sure what has happened to this product in the last two years but it has definitely declined and a horrible product that I will never purchase again . I do not recommend this tape to anyone painting .

                              Do not buy this
                              I bought this frog tape hoping that it is going to work better than the other brands and it is wider. However, this tape took off the paint when i was peeling it off. It is so frustrating because it took us 2 days to spray paint our ceiling and the frog tape took them off! Do not buy this tape! I wished I read the reviews before I used it.

                                Nothing like painting twice
                                Used this tape for years. Never had a problem. But this recent roll is tearing up all of the paint I’ve already applied. Incredibly thrilled to paint what I already have for the second time! I know why I choose Green Tape!

                                  Did not live up to reputation
                                  Paid extra over other brand expecting advertised results. Very disappointed with results. Will now have to spend extra hours painting over bleed through.

                                    Totally disappointed
                                    I normally purchase the blue painters tape when I’m painting but I read some reviews on the frog tape that it produces straight lines for corners where two different colors meet. Every review I read raves about how well frog tape adheres to surfaces and produces super straight lines, so I splurged and paid the extra money for frog tape. Well, I feel duped! I’ve gotten straighter lines with the regular blue painters tape. I thought maybe I just didn’t press it down well enough, but every time I’ve used it, it’s bled....bad! Now I have to go back and correct all the bleeds. I will never buy frog tape again. I recommend regular old blue painters tape. Save your money.

                                    Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear and see the paint bleed you experienced. Textured surfaces can be very tricky. When cutting in, it is best to run a thin coat of your base color along the tape edge first. Doing so activates the PaintBlock, and any bleed through will be the same color as the base paint.
                                      Foggy pulls off the paint
                                      in a nutshell since reviewer app is not user friendly, some seepage, but Froggy pulled off too much paint when removing the tape, trying to upload pics, but app keeps knocking me out/off!!

                                        Terrible on corner edges
                                        After being recommended to use this I removed all the masking tape I had already put into position and replaced it with frog tape. Very disheartened to remove the tape and found it had bled. Now I have to go over the very dark painted bleed with white to fix it up.... it is going to be a very tedious and long fix. Very dismayed

                                          Amazing stuff
                                          This tape is amazing. Always pass it up thinking it was no different than the blue stuff. Friend Gave me a roll and I was amazed. Just the right amount if adhesion and the lines are razor sharp with NO paint bleed.

                                            Frog not prince tape
                                            At 67 I'm not new to painting but I was new to frog tape. Wish I hadn't wasted my money. Not only did it allow the paint to bleed but when I removed it it pulled off the paint from underneath. Not I have more work to do. Never again.

                                            Hi there - we are sorry to hear that you had this issue with our FrogTape. Please reach out to us directly so we can further assist.
                                              Painted a wall design
                                              I wanted to paint a design on a wall and I bought the most expensive tape and made my lines, when I pulled the tape off it bled through everywhere now it looks like a rookie job. Seems strange to advertise a product that has pictures on the container of it not bleeding and then it does.

                                                Best paint tape
                                                Bought this a few months back, while doing living room project in my house. Better then my best expectations, did not remove paint or wood, stuck where needed. Best tape on carpet. Would recommend this project

                                                  Same as any tape and messed up my wall
                                                  Spent a stupid amount of money on this bc ita supposed to be better than the rest. Ironically it worked for my stucco wall but destroyed my normal drywall walls. After only a couple days it tore down through my wall all the way to drywall. On very dry paint, very slowly at 90°. Doesnt work any better or worse than reg tape bc both destroyed my walls beyond a simple repair equally. Never wastimg the extra money for this brand if its gonna behave the same way as cheaper tape

                                                      Difficult to apply
                                                      Frog tape is now so thin it is challenging to apply, particularly in corners. Not worth the price or effort for slightly cleaner edges.

                                                        Horrible
                                                        I used on my stairs. Paint does not leave clean lines, there are drips everywhere. When the paint wets it it lifts and runs occur. Now I have to go back on every step and fix all the runs. I have painted my whole house and never had this problem with the blue tape. I will never use this frog tape again. Worst painting tape ever!
