How to hang posters to the wall without damage

The big question is: How can you do that without the landlord coming after you or destroying the poster once you bring it down. Here are a few ways that you can try.

 

Getting Started with the task of hanging posters to a wall

  1. Wash your hands! Posters are printed on paper, with inks that react to chemicals. Posters cannot be easily cleaned, so make sure that you are damaging them before you hang them up!
  2. Find the right location for the poster. Where is the poster meant to be placed? Get the help of a friend to have her/him hold the poster for you to find just the right spot. Try shifting it up or down, left to right until you hit the spot.
  3. Mark the spot: Use a pencil with a very soft lead, maybe 2B or even softer that you can use to mark the precise spot on the wall. A little dot or two are enough most of the time.
  4. Remove dust from the wall: Dust almost behaves as a layer that will be in between your poster and the wall, preventing the adhesive to even touch the wall. Your posters won't last long if the wall is not spotless.
  5. Have a step-ladder available or a firm chair where you can stand up if necessary. Stay safe!

 

Ways to Hang the Posters: A Few Options

In this section, we are presenting commercially available products that are advertised for this purpose. By listing them here we do not take any responsibility for the good or bad results that you might get. We trust the information provided by vendors but cannot guarantee that no damage will be manifested. Some materials are more sensitive than others to glue or chemicals, so please test in your own environment before covering up your walls. Your experience could be different to that of other people.

Having cleared that, here are some materials that might help you.

 

Magic Tape: It is a classic. Very mild strength that will hold your smaller images in place. Be careful if you apply it on top of polished wood or lacquers. It will mount on top of your poster onto the wall.

Magic Tape

Double-Sided Tape: Photo safe. Mounts on the back of the poster and, because this is a double-sided glue, is also mounted on the wall, as long as your wall is flat.

Double Sided Tape

Nano Double-Sided Tape: It seems to be a thicker double-sided-tape that seems to leave no residues. This might be very useful when uneven walls or bricks are the settings.

Nano Double Sided Tape

Adhesive putty: is another product that can become useful for uneven walls. Not only it can take more load, but rough surfaces seem to be within the scope of use.

Adhesive putty

3M Glue: can be used for delicate artwork - delicate damage-free hanging.

3M Glue

Hook and Loop large and small fasteners: These would work really well both on heavier stock posters or even on posters mounted on foamboard.

Thumbtacks: Most landlords will be tolerant of just a few small holes.

Thumb tacks

Thumbtacks with a hook: These might be perfect for picture frames, or light paintings as well

I have used the company now every 6 months for re-ordering of color brochures.
Connie B - 2022-12-28 - 5 / 5 stars
Great online Company. Very easy to order online, and quality is excellent. Delivery was on time. I am a returning customer for 5 years. I love Colorcopies and hope to continue to use them, but my only negative is that Fedx delivered my item in my town to the wrong address. I fortunately got it back, but moving forward I would like to see other options for delivery other than Fedx. UPS is so much better. This is the second time Fedx has messed up my delivery. The first one was not with color copies. Please offer more choices for out of state deliveries.

I had a special request that they did not advertise. They got it done and fast. They called several times to make sure it was exactly as I wanted. My order arrived a few days later, well-packaged and perfect. I would give the more than five stars if I could. This was a great ordering experience.

Viv, in customer service is simply the best.
Althea - 2022-09-09 - 5 / 5 stars
Super Satisfied Customer. I'm impressed by the very crisp and clear color print that I received at such a reasonable price (a little over .07 cents a copy, considering the 10% discount special for first time use). There was a little more tacked on for a rush job but overall it beats every vendor I checked in the Fort Lauderdale area! Thanks for the friendly, courteous service of Sergio as well.
