Default Blue Painter's Tape: Where To Buy For Cheap???

where would i be able to find blue painter's tape for cheap? i know home depot and lowes would have it, but would i get a better deal with walmart or a painter's specialty store? i'll need a lot since i'm shipping a car and need to tape up the entire car. TIA.

arent you supposed to use the green paint tape for cars? :thinking: i've never seen a body shop use the blue stuff. :dunno:

the blue tape is going to be about the same price everywhere, give or take a few cents. Lowes, Home Depot, and Wal-mart does have it, but probably not much cheaper.

It's very similar. Blue is more common.


I don't know about taping an entire car My friends spend hours doing just the front bumper. I'd hate to be the one that has to remove it all...
