Re: Blue Tape


Thanks. Forgot about checking their site.. even though I see it up there everytime I come out here. Yep, the white looks to be about 1/2 the price or less, compared to the blue stuff.

Re: Blue Tape


Blue is good on windows and white woodwork. I use white on laquer if it's sat for more than a day. The new 3M tan tape just flat rocks though. Sticks like blue, doesn't leave a residue, but does peel away the backing like green tape if you stick it too early.

It's cheap too. My local store is selling the 5 day 3M Tan for $2 a roll for 1". I don't move much product so that's a killer deal for me. I pay $2.70 a roll for regular blue.

I'll use the orange-core blue (15 day) on new latexes/acrylics. Seems to work well, but I hate using it. It's got no tac. I just doesn't stay if you don't caulk it right after you tick it.
