Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure maximum holding strength, start by cleaning the target surface with isopropyl alcohol to remove dust, oil, or debris. Once the surface is completely dry, peel a tab from the backing, press firmly onto the item to be hung, and hold for several seconds. To remove, gently pull the tab parallel to the surface to break the adhesive bond slowly. While these tabs are versatile, avoid using them on freshly painted walls or loose, flaking surfaces to prevent accidental damage during removal.
