Removable Double-Sided Mounting Squares, 16 Pre-Cut Foam Squares, 0.7 in. x 0.7 in., Removes Easily Without Leaving Any Residue, Photo-Safe, Mess-Free Application (108AMS-SQ-16)

I used these to hang multiple drawings for an art show. The walls were variable, some kind of hardboard and then something more porous. The mounting squares held up nicely on both surfaces for the entire duration of the show (and that was through some temperature fluctuations). When it was time to remove them, they did very little damage to the walls (maybe a tiny bit of paint removal on some), and no damage at all to the paper so long as I was careful when removing them. I will note that all the drawings were on bristol board, which is pretty stiff-- I am not sure how more delicate paper would fare. The foam meant that the drawings were up off the wall a tiny bit instead of being flush, which was something that I had wanted. Definitely will be going back to these the next time I have to hang work that can't be framed.

Works

These Scotch mounting squares are great for mounting lightweight things like posters, signs, etc on walls. They're a removable alternative to the permanent double sided tape offered by 3M. I've used these on all sorts of items and typically you can remove them without a problem but I will note a couple of considerations: First if you put these on paper, you'll probably not be able to get them off. Laminated paper or smooth surfaces is no problem though. Next, if you cut them smaller, they don't hold together as well. These are not like double sided tape where the foam is consistent throughout the product. It's like two sticky sides with an open cell foam between them. The edge of the square is the area where the two sides are joined together. So cutting the square weakens the integrity of the foam structure. Finally, if you leave them on a surface for a long time (months and months) they might leave a sticky residue behind. This easily comes off if you rub it with your finger. I use these a lot and those are my only items of note. They are of the expected 3M quality (top notch).

These small double sided adhesive squares worked well to affix magnetic snowman pieces to my apartment door, which is not metal. They were easy to apply, held well, and were easy to remove after the holiday. They did not damage the paint on the door.

I used to love these! The original gray version was absolutely perfect—super easy to use, strong, and reliable. But unfortunately, they changed the product, and the new version is a huge disappointment. These newer ones are incredibly difficult to work with. The backing paper is so hard to peel off that I actually had to stop after trying to hang just a few papers—my arms were getting sore from the struggle. It’s such a frustrating experience for something that should be quick and simple. It honestly feels like the adhesive is fighting me every step of the way. Please bring back the original version! The older gray ones worked beautifully, and these are just not usable for anyone who values their time—or their muscles. Until they switch back, I won’t be repurchasing.

Not as described and shown in the listing the tabs are down as gray and foam with double sided sticky adhesive. The product is white double sided sticky and flat.

This is a great product, for posting lightweight things to the wall. I love that they are removable, and reusable, and they do not leave any residue on your wall, or whatever you are putting on the wall. I would buy these again.

As with most every Scotch product, these performed perfectly: exactly as advertised and expected. Used them to hold a plastic 3 AA battery box to a painted house door. Was in place for about 6 weeks, and exposed to warm and cold temperatures. Stuck very well, yet no problem removing from either surface when I wanted to take it down. Perfect.

I've tried these on a few different surfaces. The only thing they were good for was mounting paper to cardboard.

Useful

Very disappointing, I tried to put up a picture but 8 squares weren't enough to hold it. I then tried to put up a small flag, and it fell too, they don't work. The one good thing is they come off the wall easy so there is no evidence of this useless product.

This item didn’t even hold a poster. I used more than 1/2 pack of stickers on the poster but it keeps falling off.
