FrogTape Painter’s Masking Tapes
All FrogTape painter’s tapes are treated with patented PaintBlock Technology, a super-absorbent polymer that reacts with the water in emulsion paint and instantly gels to form a micro-barrier. It seals the edges of the tape, preventing paint bleed and the need for touch-ups. The results are crisp, clean paint lines each time.
The signature recyclable and reusable FrogTape canister protects your tape edge not only against moisture, but nicks and dents that can ruin the tape edge during storage.

|---|---|---|---|
Clean Surface & Let DrySand then clean the area you will be masking and painting before you tape to make sure the surface is dust free. Use a damp sponge and a few drops of washing up liquid mixed in a bucket of warm water. Let surface dry completely before applying tape. | Tape in 30-60cm SectionsTape any areas on your surface you want to keep paint-free. For best results, tape in 30-60cm sections to avoid stretching the tape. | Burnish Tape’s EdgeBurnish the tape’s edge with a plastic tool like a putty knife or credit card to ensure the tape is completely flush with the surface you will be painting. | Remove Tape When Paint is WetFor best results, remove the tape while the paint is still wet, making sure to slowly pull at a 45 degree angle. |

You can tell the quality straight away. It went onto a wall I’d repainted a few days before and I used a small wallpaper roller to get as good a seal as possible. We removed the tape 5 – 10 mins after painting. It came off really well leaving a sharp line and no annoying tearing like the cheap stuff does. Of our geometric wall paint there are just two small areas of bleed which is a shame, but it could have been a slight blemish on the wall.
Highly recommended.
Used this on a variety of surfaces and I know understand which ones are perfect to put on and take off and those to avoid:
Good:
Matt walls
Skirting boards
Other wood surfaces
Bad:
Walls that use bathroom paint / kitchen paint (those that are classed as ‘easy to wipe’ – all these surfaces, the tape tears the paint off the walls and on occassions will not stay stuck to the walls so you end up painting through the bleed
Wallpaper – depends on the thickness
I deducted the one star for using this on the bathroom walls (where edge meets ceiling) and it made a complete mess by taking the paint off – so I had to then alter and put the tape on the ceiling to paint the walls again where the tape ripped the paint!!
Overall a good buy
I have just redecorated my flat and used this product throughout the project. It done exactly as I expected it too, very adhesive great for doing skirtings and keeping your carpets paint free. I went through many roles and had no issues with any of them. They were easy to apply and also to take off, didn’t take any paint or did it leave a sticky residue behind on the surfaces i applied it to (Wood, Walls , doors and Carpets). I would defiantly recommend.

Works brilliantly. Always had issues with paint peeling off but not when using frog tape.
Did x3 rooms without a single issue. Highly recommended.
I have used masking tape before that put me off using any! This one though was easy to apply, easy to remove AND left straight edges with no bleed beneath the tape. V happy custome
If you have any job where getting a crisp clean edge is important then this is the tape you want. Sticks well, wont leak and pulls off cleanly. It’s not cheap but for the important jobs (or the ones you don’t want to spend twice the time tidying up), i’d recommend this.
Short review – Used to create a two tone painted wall. Went on very easily. Thickness we bought was perfect for rolling over lines and removed quite easily. If fixing be sure to use a firm hand to ensure upon tape removal none has sneaked into small gaps uve left.
Highly Recommend if want accuracy!
I’ve used this tape over the last 3 months worth of DIY projects and I will never use any other masking tape again. This is all you’ll ever want to use again.
Easy to apply and comes away without any residue left behind or damage to the applied surfaces.
Really good product, had to use a different tape from a well known manufacturer as ran out but really noticed the difference when removing. No bleed and crisp line on Frog tape, the opposite for the other!
The Frogtape is a good product however if You are using it the pain on wallpaper lining,it is very easy to apply, however on removing it some off the paint actually comes up off the wallpaper lining.Having to redo and bits it again.It is still a good product though,I have also tried on paining a concrete wall and wood and works perfectly.
I like this tape, it worked great for decorating, although I had to loosen the sticky layer as some of my paint underneath came off when I removed the tape.

We used this to paint specific areas on a wall. The tape stuck to the wall well, we were really pleased to see no paint leaked through or underneath and the end result was great. So much better than normal tape we use.
This is great stuff. Have used masking tape before for the same job but this was so much better. When you’ve taken so much time and care with a job it is worthwhile to finish it properly.
I used this paint a feature wall in my hallway. It was easy enough to apply and gave me perfect straight lines. I thought the tape was quite thin so added another strip to make sure I didn’t miss my mark. I would recommend but if I was to buy again I would go for the wider variety.
Easy to use, easy to tear which is what I wanted, easy to peel off. You’ve found what you’re looking for right here. Waste no more time and crack on with the painting.
Always I use frog tape for serious painting jobs. This seemed genuine . Haven’t used it yet but I am sure it will be up to scratch. Just a bit disappointed I had to get it online.
I use this for painting, but not as the manufacturers intended. I do gouache and airbrush paintings on heavyweight paper and use this to hold the paper securely in place on a large drawing board, for which it is superb as it eventually comes away without damaging the paper. I have in the past used it for masking whilst house decorating and can verify that is does an excellent job of that too.

Bought to help mask off areas for painting on a guitar. Really easy to use, sticks nicely and didn’t let the paint seep through. No residue left when taken off, and the case it comes in is handy to keep it stored
This is a really good product and we have used it extensively while decorating our house. Not as sticky as masking tape, so a great buy
Does work much better than standard tape, still does leave some bleeding if not careful. Still better to apply lacquer or caulk round edges and wipe down with wet wipe to ensure tight seal and laser straight paint lines
Amazing. Done the job I wanted it for. Which was to experiment and do some pattern painting on a wall. It stuck fine doesn’t seap through. But make sure when you stick it down run ur hands across its not a miracle worker you have to press over with your hand or some edges won’t stick itself. The tape was wider than I expected but that’s because I didn’t look at sizing. However it created a great look so I’m happy. You get alot. With the patter I did I then did it on another large wall and had enough. So a 4mtre long wall and this 1 metre wall. (in width). Good price aswell
Always used masking tape, never will I ever again, this stuff is the bomb, placed right when painting, glossing skirtings ect, cuts down painting time loads and actually makes it enjoyable. I did drip paint onto the tape multiple times and it didn’t seep through, when initially placing the tape I did think it didn’t feel thick enough so did worry but when removed, lines were straight nothing was ruined! And it looked like I knew what I was actually doing! Brilliant stuff will always use this now
I had a lot of skirting boards and facings to paint so bought a lot of this tape. Quite easy to work with, but on a (very) few occasions when I removed it, it took some of the paint off the wall as well. It was a nuisance as I then had to refresh the paint on the wall!
Love the look and the packaging. Really easy to use and doesn’t lose its stick when readjusting. Easy to paint over and when peeling this tape off the wall it offers a really clean nice finish and does not pull any paint off the wall. I will be buying this again when it comes to painting more rooms
Good tape for doing the perfect lines, and nice it sticks to the wall. My tip to make sure it doesn’t bleed through is just rub a bit of caulkers product along the edges as this does stop any bleeding. Then just paint over and pull off.
I have tried using masking tape to get decent edges when painting before (because I can’t cut-in to save my life) and half the time the tape tore off the paint I was trying to protect and the new paint bled through it. A mate told me about Frog tape and I just tried it. One coat of stain block and two coats of paint and it worked flawlessly. Absolutely fantastic.
Good product you need to go over the tape with your finger or such like to make sure that it is sealed
Amazing product, wanting to use it for years. Weirdly i thought it would be like celetape but it still like masking tape just sticks to the wall much better and removes leaving no trace. Perfect for edging and creating patterns on walls or canvas.
Fair price also.
This tape does the job well. It sticks as it should to all surfaces I’ve tried and is easy enough to remove. Can’t miss it either with its bright green colour.
It comes in a very nice plastic case, which does seem to be a bit excessive for a roll of masking tape and possibly adds to the price.
This is the only downside to the tape. It is a little pricey. Having said that, I couldn’t find it cheaper and will probably buy it again next time I have a painting job to do.

I purchased this as part of a remodel of my bedroom and I initially purchased some painters tape from a nearby DIY store and it led to paint coming off the walls. I was recommended to try frog tape and was initially suspicious about it’s claims but it was by the best product I purchased. Strong adhesion, easy to peel and the result was strong clear lines. If you have concerns about paint peeling then it’s best to purchase this product or the low tack frog tape which I haven’t tried but it’s recommended for delicate walls.
I really like this stuff! Gives clean lines! If using on fresh(ish) paint, test it in an inconspicuous area just to be sure. And dont leave it on until it dries, peel it off carefully as soon as you have painted
Straight lines were never my forte when painting; then I discovered Frog Tape. It takes time to set up of course and if you have a very steady hand it’s probably pointless. However my results have made it essential in this household when painting to an edge. GREEN tape onto cured paint, wood or PVC. YELLOW tape if the surface was painted between a couple of days and a couple of weeks ago. Great stuff – forget masking tape for this job.

This is my favourite DIY product on the market. I totally love it. I am a repeat customer and can’t recommend Frogtape highly enough. Excellent value for money.
Went on easily and came off very eaisily. Marked a bit of old wallpaper but I was pulling it off like an idiot and didn’t when I was more careful
This product is quite expensive but these days you get exactly what you pay for and I did ! ! ! I had read up on this product prior to purchase and using this tape gave me the exact finish I desired. As soon has one coat is dry you can use this low tack tape without the fear of pulling the first coat off.
Brilliant finish

This tape is amazing. Wish I’d had it for all my decorating over the last 30 years! It does exactly what it says on the tin. It definitely peels off more easily when the paint isn’t fully dry.
A great product.
ive seen a few reviews saying this pulled off the existing paint. I took off the tape as soon as the paint was dry and the finish was perfect. Make sure you follow the instructions and apply a thin coat of paint over the tape edge and allow it to dry before second coating as this stops the paint bleeding through. Wish I had bought this soone
Bought for use with a Giani kichen top paint kit.
Very good quality,sticks well no “paint creep”,easy to see when removing,bright green.
Best masking tape I have used so far.
I bought this tape for art purposes. I need to attach my watercolour paper to my art board, but often when I try to remove the masking tape it was tearing the paper.
So, I tried this tape and I’m happy to report that it’s very very sticky but removes cleanly and I’ve had no ripped paper.
I like that it’s got a nice container to keep it in.
My husband has even stolen it a couple of times to do projects on the bodywork of his classic car.
Great tape, will buy agai
We have started using it for masking off before painting instead of the usual masking tape and it does a great job.
Will certainly use it all the time from now on.
I used this to paint the edges of the walls and coving. It did do a brilliant job but due to its aggressive adhesion but some of the paint came off when removing the tape. Nevertheless, it did provide an excellent finish in the end.

I’d love to give it high marks as it helped us get impeccable edges on the paint. However on the smallest job – doing the resealing of the kitchen counter, it fobbed up so bad, I had a meltdown over it.
Stuck it over the paint which had a week to dry. When we applied the sealant and peeled it off it took all the nice new paint with it. It was horrendous.
Do not put it over your new paint even if week old! It will give you sad!
Otherwise good to use.

This is a revelation to me. I have always used ordinary masking tape…which invariably goes tacky and removes half of what you are trying to protect. This however is the right track and us a dream to use.
I am a DIY person and didn’t believe in wasting my time putting masking tape on. I would much rather waste more time cleaning paint off were it should not be. Extremely time saving for painting applying silicon joints, gives me an almost professional finish
The tape works really well with good adhesion to most surfaces. Easy to use and easy to install. My only complaint is the plastic box that it came in… is it really necessary to use a plastic box when there are so many environmental options available..
Didn’t really want to pay that much for masking tape but very pleased I did. Great stuff. Better than the stuff from own brand DIY shops. You get what you pay for. No paint bleeding and does not lift. Sticks like glue but also removes easily.
Excellent product. Did exactly what it said on the tin. Was slightly suspicious it wouldn’t work at first, but it actually worked perfectly. It worked better than expected. It’s great for geometric patterns and just for painting straight lines. I would definitely recommend it.
By the way you might find it cheaper at your local B&Q.
I used it for painting a front door with 8 long strips of glass. Four larger strips to the top and Four shorter to the bottom half.
Took me a while to stick it all in place but wow!! well worth it when the paint dries and you take it off. There was no bleed at all and no paint penetrated the tape.
This was the first time I have ever used this and it will not be the last.
I thought I would be using all the tape but it looks like it is still a new roll.
I fully recommend this to any professional painter or DIY’er.
Very good tape if used correctly. I got a little bit hasty in between coats and let the paint dry only for couple of hours and had a little bit of paint sticking to the tape. When given the paint double the time to dry, there was no issue. Nice sharp lines.
I wish I discovered this sooner! Having used masking tape in the past my edges have never been as sharp, crisp and neat as those you get when using FrogTape.
With FrogTape I was able to use a single piece for each edge. It sticks well and doesn’t let the paint bleed through, like with masking tape. Definitely worth the cost!
The only criticism is that the tape comes in a plastic box – is this really necessary?
Does what it’s meant to do with no awful bleed through. There was only two times( in 3 rolls- bought separately- ) that the paint underneath it came off when removing tape from the wall. Good product. Probably cheaper ones but as was happy with the first roll I thought I’d stick with Frog tape.
This stuff is ideal for painting projects. It’s a lot better than your basic masking tape, minimal bleed when painting. I use this on my guitar builds and get great results… I can’t go back to basic masking tape. Definitely worth having roll if you plan any intricate painting.
I used this to protect my amtico floor while glossing skirting boards. (Please note that the product states this is meant to be used for EMULSION paint and can have unpredictable results if used with gloss – but i was prepared to take the risk.)
I got a nice neat edge and no paint seemed to seep through. Much better than the masking tape I used the night before!
I will be using this to protect the newly glossed skirting and get a straight edge when emulsioning the walls.
In fact I will, from now on, only ever use this when I come to decorate anything.
Comes in a plastic tub, which at first I thought was unnecessary packaging, but actually it’s good for when I stored it away with the decorating kit and I’m sure it’ll keep the tape from drying out.
I think the green tape is brilliant and wortb paying the extra for (over cheap masking tape) anyway.
Update: having bought (and reviewed) the green multisurface variety, I ordered the yellow tape for newly painted surfaces.
Oh dear. I would never advise anyone to use it on emulsioned walls or ceilings. I was painting a wall so used this on the adjacent wall that had been painted for 3 days and the ceiling that had been painted 10 years.
The tape was on for under an hour.
It took off lots of the paint when I removed it. I could touch up the newly painted adjacent wall because I still had that paint, but try matching paint to a white ceiling that has aged 10 years!! I can not face doing the entire ceiling so will have to live with new whiter patches, so that’s a big disappointment.
I did get a really straight edge though.
So maybe it’s best to use this on edges but then accept you might need to touch up just In from the edge when you peel off the tape.
It’s possible that it’s ok if your room is very warm – mine was quite cold. Id read the hairdryer tip but didn’t think it would be necessary in less than an hour.
Absolutely love this tape, it ensures you get a nice straight edge on all your rooms when it comes to decorating. It is just right when it comes to tack so your not taking pieces of your fresh wall off just get the ceiling done and vice versa.
This tape does have a superb second feature for me though and that is it is ideal for 3D Printer Beds. Alot of people out there are using the 3M Blue tape, however this serves a much better function. Its ideal in terms of tack, its just rough enough to ensure things stick and add PVA Glue Stick and the results are second to none.
Also if you find that some prints your having the tape peel and stick to the bottom a quick rinse under the tap and its gone. Its wide enough to ensure your not using loads of it as well. I envisage this roll will last 2-3 months with regular printing. Definitely worth spending a tad more for the results you get.
Highly Recommended.

I really like this masking tape which lives up to the advertising for it.
I chose the 36mm x 41.1 m size and it worked well with no bleeding
of paint into other surfaces.
I shall buy Frog Tape in future for masking of all surfaces that I wish
to paint.
This was an excellent purchase.
I haven’t been incentivised to write this review but I’m sure everyone else says the same thing – why buy any other masking tape. Surely Frog tape has sorted all the old annoying problems with tape – too sticky – destroys what it’s attached to, not sticky enough – falls off or is worse than useless, too weak – tears too easily or tears along the length when your taking it off the roll, too hard – seapage underneath. This has sorted it all and despite there being different varieties for different purposes, this is universal!

Still the best on the market,easy to use and wont damage existing paintwork,it’s well protected in the plastic container so the edge will still be straight when you use it.
Easy to cut,apply and remove,the rolls are much bigger than the standard ones you’ll see in a DIY shop…
I always use this, it’s the wider version in case you get sloppy with roller and or paintbrush… I have tried cheaper versions ,with varying success, but have never yet gone wrong with Frog Tape. I also use the yellow Frog tape over recently painted walls and find it peels off a treat, if you pull gently and evenly.
With this tape the tackiness is considerably lower so it lifts off easily. I do find it better if doing multiple coats to lift the tape off between each coat so that paint does not dry and form a skin over the tape. Whilst this does use considerably more tape the cost is insignificant compared to the time if the pint cracks.
Buying on amazon is great because price was comparable and meant saving considerable time trekking to my local diy store

Please don’t waste any more time searching the internet for the best product. This item is simply the best; based on personal experience. I humbly give it 20,000 STARS. Please, JUST BUY THIS
Frog Tape Painters Masking Tape Multisurface – 48 mm x 41.1 m. IT IS FANTASTIC. Easy to use. I rate it very high. BUY! BUY!! BUY!!! TIME SAVER!!!
To say that it is HIGH QUALITY MASKING TAPE IS EVEN AN UNDERSTATEMENT. MAGICAL QUALITY.
DOES IT KEEPS THE PAINT OUT? ABSOLUTELY.
DOES IT KEEPS THE LINES SHARP? YOU BET! UNBELIEVABLE
CAN YOU KEEP IT IN PLACE FOR MORE THAN 21 DAYS? KEEP IT IN PLACE FOR EVER IS MY ANSWER. UNBELIEVABLE. MAGICAL GEM! MAGICAL GEM!! MAGICAL GEM!!!
Believe me, there is nothing like this in the market. PERIOD! YOU MUST BUY! I bought 2 initially. Then I bought additional 4. I promise you this, I WILL NEVER TRY ANOTHER MASKING TAPE AGAIN, I HAVE DISCOVER A REAL DEAL IN MASKING TAPE!
I like the fact it does what it says on the tin so to speak but my mark downs are as follows:-
1. if you wipe down a surface using mild cleanser – I use baby wipes or surface cleaners depending on what’s to hand – the tape won’t
stick down bunt normal masking tape will.
2. after your painting job is complete and you peel this tape of it will peel off any underlying, dried, paint. I’m not talking days later I’m talking
hours.
3. I find it very common with this tape to tend to curve when you’re rolling out along straight edges and if you try to peel off and re-lay
it just complicates things as the tape has now warped etc.
These are just my thoughts – it doesn’t mean don’t buy it and try it for yourself 🙂
I soon learnt that looks are very deceiving. The product applies very well and is easy to keep in a nice straight line. It allows an easy paint over it with no hassles or runs. The most important part is that it is easy to remove and leaves a perfect edge with no runs behind the tape (a common problem I found with masking tape). This was definately worth the money.
I HATE decorating but didn’t want to pay price for a contractor to paint..
However, I was truly p****d off with cheap bloody masking tape which kept allowing paint to bleed through and was about to throw an almighty tantrum when I saw on youtube someone recommending this!
So I thought, bugger it I will buy some and see. WOW…spot on, done exactly as described. Wish I had found out about this few years earlier
would recommend! I hate DIY and decorating and this was a life changer. Can’t believe one could get excited about tape, but hey who knew what i had been missing out on
On a serious note, yes more pricey, but saves silly amount of time having to repaint wooden trim etc so worth the price
Wouldn’t paint without it. It’s as simple as that. If you’re looking at this thinking “that’s rather expensive for masking tape!” then that is because this isn’t masking tape like you know it. This is what masking tape should be – it doesn’t bleed or run through it, and it lifts off easily and cleanly. I tried it once because someone gave me some (I was too stingy to buy it myself) but having used it I will never ever go back.
It’s similar to masking tape however is designed to not pull off paint when removed, it doesn’t have the sticky thick adhesive/glue.
I used this both above and beneath the skirting around the rooms when we were redecorating and it worked a treat.
You have to make sure the tape it removed at the correct time, ie. before the paint drys/hardens

Love this… BUT! I have tried to learn Cutting in and watched lots of videos on You tube. Even bought an angled paint brush and still the paint goes up on the ceiling. There really is a art to this cutting in! Anyway, so I used cheap masking tape which took off half the plaster. Then I found this. For novices like me it has been a lifesaver. I put it on the ceiling and anywhere I need to use it and can paint edges quite fast. However, I do take the tape off quite quickly afterwards and don’t leave it on too long. Once it took off a tiny piece of plaster but it’s the first time that has happened to me. Mostly the lines are quite sharp. Occasionally it seems through in a couple of areas. I am unsure if that is due to me not sticking it down firmly enough but it is still such a better job that I could ever achieve with a free hand at painting. I always use it now – no hesitation. There appears to be a yellow version that is for more delicate painting when I tried to buy it very few people appear to sell it on here so I have just stuck to this one, it’s good enough.
I like it, but to be totally frank there are cheaper alternatives but Amazon has a good price for these compared to B&Q or Wickes.
It was really nice painting and removing the tape and not having it pull any paint off or leave any sticky residue behind.
There’s not that much to say about these except it works well and you get a decent amount of it. It peels off really easily and is much thicker than standard masking tape.
It could however be cheaper, it’s just tape after all. But if you are doing just a spot of decorating it’s perfec
Frog tape is amazing! We were initially skeptical after trying various masking tapes which allowed the paint to bleed underneath leaving a huge mess once removed. Frog tape is completely different if applied correctly and removed within the time it suggest after painting, our decorating looks much more professional in the rooms that we have used from tape.
When we have a painting job due I always make sure we have some as it saves time edging in.
There’s even a yellow version that is safe to use on touch-dry painted walls, if you are in a hurry to finish a room in a day or so.
You need masking tape, you buy this. It will not fail you. You get what you pay for in this world – and the price justifies the fact that it is the best in the business. You also get a fair amount for what you pay.
Oh, and it comes in a little plastic tub, so that’s reusable afterwards if you are so inclined – personally I like to use the tubs they come in as a wet paintbrush holder for neatness’ sake.
It has a cute tree frog on it, too. If you like that stuff.
Having just had lots of building work done (resulting in much decorating to do) was pleased with how well this tape works. Very little paint bleed under it. Found it best to put down in lots of short strips rather than one long one (easier to remove when paint is wet without getting paint everywhere). Best to take up as soon as last coat of paint has been applied if painting gloss (to avoid the paint being pulled off with the tape).
