Using the tesa® Adhesive Nail for Wallpaper & Plaster 1kg

Cleaning your surface with a dust-free cloth will ensure optimal holding power. Always test the load-bearing capacity of your surface before mounting.

Peel off an Adhesive Strip using the handle – but be careful not to touch the adhesive surface. Press the strip vertically to the surface with the blue tab at the bottom, facing the wall.

To activate the Powerstrips® Technology, press down firmly across the entire surface for at least 5 seconds.

Take off the protective foil where you see the Powerstrips® emblem. Align the nail with the top edge of the strip, ensuring that the head of the nail is at the top, then fold the nail down onto the adhesive immediately above the grey line.

Press down firmly with both thumbs at the top of the nail for 5 seconds, another 5 in the middle and for another 5 seconds at bottom of the nail. That’s it – you’re good to go!

If deer-head ornaments aren’t your ‘thing’, you can use Adhesive Nails to mount just about anything, from pictures and pinboards to lightweight clocks and small decorative mirrors in your living room, hall or bedroom. You can always use two nails for twice the holding power. And because they’re removable and reusable, you can move things around as often as you want.

Just take a hold of the nail head with one hand and grip the exposed tab with the other. Now here’s the trick: without pressing the nail onto the surface, gently stretch the Adhesive Strip down, parallel to the surface and NOT away from it. This action releases the thousands of tiny individual bonds that make up the adhesive surface, ensuring it comes away cleanly and without damaging your surface.
