Frog tape. Worth the price?

Basically title says it all. Doing my DDs room, and will be doing a few different colours on one wall. Not a mural as such, but will need to mask areas off. Have tried painters tape in the past only to have it bleed.

So, has anyone used it and is it worth paying more for it?

Thanks!

It pulled the paint off when I used it - would not recommend

Ah, so similar to regular painters tape then. I've had that happen in the past. Hmmm, need to have a think. Thanks for your reply!

This is a good product - I have no connections with the maker. There are two types - green tape and a much lower tack yellow frog tape.

Use the yellow frog tape on new paint. Go to Youtube and look at 'using frog tape' or 'frog tape tips'

I use this on special jobs such as gilding with 23.5 gold leaf where I need sharp edges, over background paint.
