What do I use to apply this product (stick) to painted drywall? what type of adhesive?

Use drywall screws and it should work out just fine. If you do in an 'MLV installation' search on the Internet you'll get plenty of good suggestions. Good luck!

Adhesive is not recommended for use with MLV. Use screws and or fastners with large washers.

I applied it to studs using drywall screws, and then covered it with the drywall. The material is very heavy and may not hold up with just an adhesive.

Hello, I would suggest to use a clear two part epoxy for your application. The glue sticks will adhere wood and acrylic but strength would be minimal due to the non-porosity surface of the acrylic.

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.

I use either double faced mounting tape (a little in each corner) or industrial Velcro strips. Depends on what you are mounting and how often you want to change it or even if you are going to change it. Learning from my mistakes, I would use corrugated plastic poster board prepared by a sign shop if you want something semi-permanent and weather-proof. For something very temporary such as paper, I would attach with painter's blue masking tape - it removes easily and cleanly. I hope this helps.

Adhesive makes it very simple. It sprays on. I did 16x37 with 2 1/2 cans. 2 should do it for you. Can't imagine trying to use duct tape.

To prevent tacks from penetrating into your drywall, use a spray adhesive and mount the cork to a foam board purchased at the dollar store.

If you're using them longterm or you don't mind making holes in your wall, I would recommend using nails or pins. Double-sided tape or that sticky tack stuff will work but you'll probably have to attach something more substantial to the foam, since the foam surface isn't ideal for sticking to things.

It really depends what you are installing it on.If it is drywall probably drilling some small holes for the glue to go in would work.You really don't want to cut a big hole - there would be nothing to glue it to.

I'm planning on getting cheap plywood or foam from a hardware store and using either spray tacky glue or modge podge to "mount" it. I'm going to paint the edges of the plywood or foam with craft paint and buy it about a half inch larger than the print for a small border. There are a lot of DIY websites with these projects that look great.

Hello, Steve...I would not recommend this product for that use. I think this job needs a stronger product like Weld Bond or Tacky Glue that comes in several kinds: Clear Gel, Original, Extra Hold, etc. my first choice for wallpaper would be Weld Bond. You could build a house with this adhesive. Hope this helps. Have a great Monday....Linda

I don't know what success other have had with this product, but the sticky tape didn't work for me. I'm trying to protect some 90 degree drywall corners and the product wouldn't stick to the walls very well. In my case, the tape was very thin and not sticky enough to stay applied to the wall (even after I just applied it). I think you would have to screw or nail it to the wall to make it really hold or experiment with better two-faced sticky tape.

Stuck it directly to the wall. There is also a video you can watch that helps. It was very easy to apply. Love mine.

Hi! I wouldn't try it. Application involves water and I think the adhesive would take the paint of your walls. :(

It should stick to that. I applied it to a latex painted wall. You just use a credit card or something like that by rubbing the back of the paper that makes it stick to the wall.

It probably will stick to anything. Including you. I would scrap wall as good as you can, then paint with dry lock first. It drys hard so water will not penetrate.Double check with manufacturing, I only used this stuff one time.

Terry - I would recommend a spray adhesive such as Super 77 from 3M: http://www.amazon.com/3M-Super-Multipurpose-Adhesive-Aerosol/dp/B0000AZ735/ Thanks!

I don't remember the name of the adhesive, but the label included, "tacky and quick drying". Liquid Nails did NOT work. The panels are fairly light for their size, but unless it dries quickly, they will fall.
