We all know the wasted masking tape involved when painting a room or, gasp!, re-vamping walls in the entire house.
I used to get so frustrated with painters tape that peels paint of walls when removed {now, that’s backwards!}, and all the waste – I fine-tuned my painting skills so that I didn’t have to mask off edges at all {yes, that does make for stressful painting}. Canadian-Made Scotch Brand of Painters Tape has ‘gone green’.
This popular and well-trusted tape is now made of 30% post-consumer recycled fibers and the adhesive is made with natural rubber. And, the shipping cartons are even made of 100% recycled fibers. I tried this tape out and even left it on a wall for 5 days – and I was still able to remove it with ease, leaving no residue on the walls.
For those doing an afternoon project, to the painting professionals – this is a great eco-friendly alternative! Now, pair the new Scotch 3M which is made with renewable resources, with an environmentally friendly paint and you have renovations that will make other areas in your home green with envy!
Scotch 3M comes in widths 24mm, 36mm, or 48mm and is available where ever Scotch Brand is sold {Canadian Tire, for instance}.
Retails for $2.99-$5.99
