No Surface Damage


  Holds on strongly! Comes off cleanly!

Tips
Whether you use Hooks, Clips, Hangers, or Strips, these hints can help you get the most out of your mounting products.


Tip #1
It’s a significant anniversary for your parents. To decorate for the party, use Clips and Hooks to put up photos of relatives, hang Mum’s wedding dress and Dad’s tie, memorabilia from their honeymoon, and items related to significant events in the lives of children and grandchildren.

Tip #2
When pulling down the removal tab with your thumb and forefinger, be aware of the angle of your thumb because fingernails may tear the tab.

Tip #3
When preparing for a presentation, use Spring Clips or Poster Strips to display charts or diagrams on the conference room walls. There will be no surface damage when you take them down.

Tip #4
Whether you’re stringing lights or sorting cords, be sure to allow sufficient room around the Clips to pull the tab and release the adhesive.

Tip #5
Do not use household cleaners to clean the surfaces before applying 3M™ Mounting Products with Command™ Adhesive. Cleaners leave behind a very thin layer of residue that affects the adhesive. Clean surface lightly with isopropyl rubbing alcohol and let dry.

Tip #6
When removing products with Command adhesive, be sure to pull the tab slowly. If it breaks, don’t worry. Simply heat up the base plate with a hair dryer. Once the adhesive is softened, use dental floss to cut through the adhesive to remove the hook or clip. Stretch or peel remaining adhesive from the surface.

Tip #7
Hooks with Command adhesive are perfect for hanging decorations from previously hard-to-attach-to surfaces like metal doors, glass block and window moldings.

Tip #8
Don’t be afraid to go all out with your decorating. When you use products with Command adhesive, you won’t be haunted by surface damage from holidays past.

Tip #9
Use Medium Hooks in various colors to color code your family’s keys.

Tip #10
Display your photos to their best advantage. Create a cohesive grouping of objects, not a hodge-podge. Cluster small objects, and hang your pictures at eye level.

 


Tip #11
Have kids group their posters by theme or style, leaving space between each one to help keep their rooms looking organised.

Tip #12
Spring Clips also come in three fun colours. Try color-coding your message board!

Tip #13
Don’t forget, when you pack away the ornaments and lights, also pack the Hooks and Decorator Clips and use again next year with 3M™ Command™ Adhesive Replacement Strips.

Tip #14
Use Poster Strips to display your greeting cards around an arched entry.

Tip #15
At Halloween, hang wreaths of dead flowers on doors or armless rubber hands or gloves stuffed with paper.

Tip #16
No drilling or hammering required. Large Hooks let you hang up your coat or sweater where it’s convenient for you.

Tip #17
Hang towels and pyjamas in the bathroom at just the right height for the changing reach of growing kids. You can with Command adhesive.

Tip #18
If you hang textiles or other materials that can be bleached by sunlight or harmed by overexposure to the elements, products with Command adhesive allow you to change hangings when you want to and not worry about damage to your walls.

Tip #19
You may have held back on decorating because of the surfaces you have to work with. Command Mounting Products make it easy to decorate on glass block, plaster, ceramic tile and wood cabinets.

Tip #20
You don’t have an easel stand? Use Hooks to hang up your easel pads. Once your presentation is done, clean up is quick and easy. Bonus: Hooks fit in a briefcase. Easel stands don’t!

Tip #21
Give your student a bag full of mounting Replacement Strips to use on the walls of their dorm room. You’ll improve the chances of getting your damage deposit back!
