Has anyone had a problem using these on painted walls? I just painted my house 2 months ago, and I REALLY don't want to screw them up!

I applied mine to a recently plastered (week before) and then painted (4 days before) wall. It stuck fine, until I came to readjust them and it ripped off the paint and even some of the plaster. I would not recommend these at all. I really wish I'd just put a hook up.

I'm not a professional and so mine are hardly used. I just checked after months of not using them and they certainly seem okay. My suggestion would be to keep the lids tightly closed and to possibly layer a small piece of Saran wrap over the top of the paint to further keep it moist. Alternatively, you can probably always moisten any dry paint, if necessary, by wetting your paint brush or sponge, then work the moisture into the paint. I hope this helps!

No, they don't harm the surface at all, and they're VERY easy to put up. Just take them out of the pkg and stick them wherever you want. They come rolled up, but it's ok . . just flatten them as you stick them on the wall. It's very thin, like contact paper. And I LUV LUV LUV them, by the way! I have them stuck to my computer cabinet and use them to write myself notes and keep track of appointments, bills, etc. They're wonderful! (You might want to order the "chalk markers" with the Wallies. Chalk works ok, too, but the chalk ink is GREAT . . I use it to write notes on windows and mirrors, too. And truthfully, you don't need the Wallies if you use the Chalk Ink . .. it writes on most anything (walls, mirrors, the fridge, the stove) and washes right off!) :-)

I think it would be very difficult to get a satisfactory result on a painted block wall. I think it would adhere ok, but would be hard to get the sections to line up properly on a surface as rough as that. YMMV

I'm going to go ahead and say they are not reusable. Getting them on the wall isn't all that difficult, but pulling them off would be. Applying it, I made a fist, and pressed it into the wall hard, in a circular motion so it was good and stuck. My best recommendation to you would be to find a wall it can be on for a lllooonnngggggg time.

Hi Jerry, I'm doing the same. Did these work for your canvas? Thanks in advance for your reply! :)

My walls are textured, I think like the 'crow feet' texture, and these went on it just fine. I rubbed them a little more to make sure they were on there and going to stick, but I haven't had any problems with them yet. I only put them up Satruday, but they seem like they are going to stay!

What i did was put them on my wall using thumbtacks. So it's super easy to remove, When it's time to move out my apartment. Just don't use glue. And you should be fine.

They are perfectly simple to remove, and won't damage a thing, for my paint at least. Breathing on my walls seems to chip them. xD They've been wonderful for me!

Probably... I did not use them on a wall, but I would imagine they would stick just fine. If anything, they would probably take paint off the wall if you had to replace one for some reason.

It has a very light adhesive. It should stick, without over sticking and messing up walls. Unless someone adds their own adhesive to it. I have a flat based paint on a flat surface wall.... Mine has been up since I got them and I have had no problems. I am not a professional wall person, this is just my own experience. Thank you.

You may have to use additional adhesive. They stuck to the walls for less than 12 hours and started coming off.

I just now took a scrap & put it in my wall....textured drywall with simi gloss paint..... it came off easier than glass.. don't know how long term would work. I don't think it would damage the wall. I hope this is of some help.

If the plastered walls are pretty smooth, I don't think it will be a problem. If they are textured, you many run into issues with it sticking. This product isn't super sticky. I would recommend ordering a small amount to see if it works first. The product came faster than expected.

Did you clean your cabinets well before painting...I have had for several months; but they still look wonderful.....

Nope. They are really beautifully hand painted/glazed. Have mind about 1 1/2 years now, and never had any problems.

I just put three of them up on textured walls and they keep falling down. I lined the edges with painters tape as others have recommended and that keeps coming off with the whiteboard. Im thinking i may just have to use masking tape on the edges or something else more sticky.
