  • Fixing Foamex temporary to painted wall

    Hi people!!

    Hope everyone is well, we’re having some dilemmas, we can’t think of a way to temporary fix foamex 3mm (2m x 700mm) to an internal conference wall without damaging it permanently.

    No screws, No hard core glue or anything which would damage the wall face.

    Anyone have any ideas? please!

    Cut a piece of REMOVABLE (low tack) exhibition vinyl slightly smaller than your foamex.
    apply to wall.
    Stick foamex to vinyl using vhb tape on corners and middle.

    Take extreme care when removing! Remove VHB tape before removing vinyl.

    Simon.

    Hi, I have used a foam tape from Essentra Speciality Tapes, it has a removable adhesive one side and a permanent adhesive on the other perfect for fitting panels without damaging the surface. The tape is called Remo One – code 471439.
