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.

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.

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...?

this was the right product but wrong quantity I bought this product it said it was a four pack for the price of one I ended up getting one and paid 10.00 for it and its 2.86 in walmart .they give false information so i returned the product for a refund ended up getting it for free because the company said that amazon gave misleading information my thing is take a second look before buying any thing here
