3.0 out of 5 stars 3m sticky tabs, hold well, but maybe need to be replaced after a year or so.?, January 16, 2009

This review is from: 3M Scotch 11/16 Inch Clear Mounting Squares, 35/Package (Kitchen)

I've bought a few packs of these, and have found them to be working well. I have a set of 8x10 eeboo cards, that are a thick laminated poster, that have been on the wall for a year now. Only two have fallen, ones that were repositioned two or three times. I'm not sure why just those were affected, maybe there was dirt on the wall. I put new squares on and they've been fine. I used 4 squares, 1 per corner, so it lays flat.
I have another project now, and was debating between these and the removable poster tape, but I think these would be stronger.
I have noticed that sometimes, they don't come apart so easily, which makes them stretch, or have a corner fold over. Not a big deal though. Great for a kids room, or temporary artwork in a play space.

update:1/29/2010. I am removing the cards today, and have had at least 3 adhesives rip the paint and drywall, to expose the brown paper part of the drywall. Not too happy about that. One cracked the paint. I am trying to lift the center of the card, then loosen one end, and then lightly twist to get the top to pop without ripping off any more paint. So, overall they came off fine, but the ones that didn't ruined more than just paint, and now require spackle, primer and repainting. Before I rehang these on a different wall, I'll be scouting new options. Maybe the trick is too replace them yearly...?

5.0 out of 5 stars Great alternative to tacks and putties, July 17, 2010

Clear Mounting Squares are a great alternative to tacks. They do not leave holes in your paper like tacks and remove cleanly compared to putties. Great for holding schedules, charts, art work, and more. Easy to use and not noticeable.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy this stuff!, October 24, 2011

By 

"Cookie" in Arizona - See all my reviews

This stuff doesn't stick -- at least not anything I've attempted. With grandchildren I'm always looking for something to stick pictures, projects, decorations, etc., onto windows (mostly) or the fridge. Tired of the gummy stuff (tacky gum, or something like that) I thought this would be the answer. Well, I was wrong, and I've picked up and picked up various items that were supposed to be "stuck," to the point of real annoyance. I won't buy it again, but am still looking for the perfect answer. If anyone has a reasonable solution, PLEASE post! In any event, save your money.
