Product Information

Full details

This guide is for DIY enthusiasts, decorators, and anyone needing a reliable, strong adhesive solution for indoor and outdoor applications. The key benefit is its permanent, double-sided foam adhesion for quick and secure mounting of various items. A potential caveat is the permanence, meaning removal may require care to avoid surface damage. These sticky pads offer a strong bond on diverse surfaces like ceramics, wood, glass, and metal, providing a convenient alternative to traditional fasteners.

FAQs

Are these pads truly permanent?

Yes, these sticky pads are designed for permanent adhesion. While they can be removed with care and sometimes heat, they are not intended for repositioning once applied.

What surfaces can I use these on?

They adhere well to ceramics, wood, glass, metal, tiles, and most painted surfaces. Ensure surfaces are clean and dry for best results.

Can I use these outdoors?

Yes, they are suitable for both indoor and outdoor accessories and applications.

How do I prepare the surface before applying?

The surfaces must be clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and moisture for optimal adhesion.

What is the size of each sticky pad?

Each pad measures 12mm x 25mm.

How many pads are in a pack?

There are 56 pads in each pack.

Will these hold heavy objects?

These pads are best suited for lightweight to moderately weighted items. For heavier objects, consider using specialized mounting hardware or stronger adhesives.

Troubleshooting

Pad not sticking firmly

Ensure both surfaces are completely clean, dry, and free of dust, oil, or moisture. Press firmly on both sides of the pad for the recommended time (at least 30 seconds per side).

Item fell off after a short period

Check the weight of the item against the pad's capacity. Ensure surfaces were properly prepared and the item was not disturbed immediately after application. For heavier items, multiple pads or a stronger adhesive may be required.

Difficulty removing an item

Due to the permanent nature, removal can be challenging. Gently try to slide a thin, flexible blade (like a palette knife or credit card) under the edge of the pad. Apply heat with a hairdryer on a low setting to soften the adhesive, then carefully pry. Be aware that surface damage may occur.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers a strong and permanent bond.
  • Adheres to a wide variety of surfaces.
  • Suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.
  • Convenient and easy to use without tools.
  • Comes in a practical pack size for multiple projects.

Cons

  • Permanence means difficult removal from surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure both surfaces to be joined are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or moisture.
  2. Peel one side of the sticky pad and carefully apply it to one surface.
  3. Press firmly for at least 30 seconds to ensure good adhesion.
  4. Peel the other side of the pad.
  5. Align the item and press firmly onto the second surface for at least 30 seconds.

Compatibility:

The pads adhere well to smooth, non-porous surfaces such as:

  • Ceramics
  • Wood (finished and sealed)
  • Glass
  • Metal
  • Tiles
  • Painted surfaces (ensure paint is well-cured)

Avoid use on wallpaper, delicate painted surfaces, or porous materials where adhesion might be weak or removal could cause damage.

Care:

These are single-use, permanent adhesive pads. Once applied and adhered, they are not designed for repositioning or removal without potential damage to the surface. Clean application surfaces thoroughly before use. Do not expose to excessive moisture for prolonged periods if used outdoors, as this may affect adhesion over time.
