3M 109 Wallsaver Removable Mounting Tape Review

3M 109 Wallsaver Removable Mounting Tape
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
It's almost like regular two sided tape, but thicker and less sticky. The plastic part feels more thick and rubbery than standard scotch tape and it seems to conform to bumpy surfaces better. It doesn't seem as sticky - but that's a good thing because it's supposed to peel off the wall without leaving adhesive and marks.
Over all, it does a decent job. No idea (yet) how long it will hold things aloft. A 1" piece has been holding a tin of starbucks gum on a cabinet door for a few days. No drama.
On the other hand ... The roll does have a few warnings on the back:
"Note: Removes cleanly from walls. May damage poster upon removal. Not recommended for use on wallpaper, delicate surfaces or walls painted with flat paint."
My intuition is that this stuff would be great for beiber type posters because it minimizes damage to the wall and the posters will be replaced with something else in a year or two.

UGlu MTR703 Multi-purpose Industrial Strength Adhesive Strip Variety Pack Review

This adhesive started out being the greatest thing in the world. The only problem is, that only lasted for about 4 days for the application I needed it for. All I needed the tape for was to hold a small 1 ounce circular disk to my car dashboard so I could mount my GPS unit to it. Total weight of GPS and holder is 1.2 pounds, well under the 2 pound limit of the tape. But any time the weather got too cold (below 40) or too hot (above 70), the disc simply fell off of the dashboard. The tape clearly states that it works in temperatures of 0-180.
I have tried multiple times to get this to work, but it simply fails each time. Two smooth surfaces cleaned with alcohol and the strips applied as instructed, but it never holds for more than a few days. I have even tried doubling up the tap and that didn't do the trick either. Maybe I need someting that's truly permanent instead of permanent and removeable.
Still giving this a 3-star rating because it surely works fine for other small applications, but it most certainly doesn't work when temperature ranges are involved.

Zinsser 2861 SureGrip Seam & Repair Adhesive Tube, 2-Ounce Review

Zinsser SureGrip Seam & Repair Adhesive works great. I had several places in the bathroom where the wallpaper was coming loose at the seams. I thought that I would have to replace it. But before going through that expensive repair I thought I would try out this product first and to my amazement you can't even tell where it has been repaired, it is as good as new. The only thing I would suggest is that you use some painters tape to hold the seam in place over night as it dries. The tape will come off with no problems the next day... well worth trying it out.
