I have several larger (16x20) prints on 2mm styrene - I've tried to display on the wall with double sided tape - that lasts 2-3 days before they fall off... Tape stays on the pic, but peels away from the wall.

Any other suggestions on how to display a photo on styrene? - I don't want to frame - any special hooks, fastners, or - a realllly good tape ?

tks,


Rick

I lightly scuff 2 marks on the backside of the board and hotglue a piece of kite string to the back. I then hang the print with a little tack in the wall. I have several 36x24 and other sizes on my wall for years now. No problems.. I have a photo example somewhere, just can't find it now..

you can go to autozone and get the 3M product that is used to installing body molding on cars, it's heavy duty double sided foam tape. clean the wall surface with alcohol where the tape is going to make contact.
The down side is this will be permanent install
Idea 2 go to home depot/lowes where they sell the networking crap there are self adhesive wire mounting blocks you could install one or more the the back of your photos, I will get one our of my gear when I finish my coffee and post a photo here.

3M Command Adhesive strips. Stick to anything and come off without leaving a mark.
