Office Double Sided Tape Guide and Tips

1. Core Three Steps: Proper Paste

Remember the principle of 'one measurement, two adhesions, three compressions' to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Measure-Measure and Cut

First, estimate the size of the item you want to paste.

Trim the double-sided tape slightly shorter than the item's width, leaving a small gap at each end to prevent it from sticking to the surrounding area.

Apply double-sided tape to the four corners and the critical load-bearing points in the upper middle part of the item's back, without covering the entire surface.

Key technique: Remove the release paper (white backing) from one side of the double-sided tape to a length of 5-10 cm. First, secure the tape to the wall, then slowly pull down the release paper while gently pressing the item onto it. This prevents the entire tape from twisting in the air and sticking to you.

After pasting, press firmly back and forth several times with your palm or a flat tool (such as a ruler or scraper), especially at the edges.

The longer the pressure application time (recommended 10-15 seconds), the better the bonding effect.

2. Advanced Techniques: Paste More Firmly, Remove Without a Trace

Increase viscosity: Before applying, ensure the wall and the back of the item are dry, clean, and free of oil or dust. You can wipe them with a dry cloth first.

Smooth surface: Before use on very smooth surfaces such as glass and metal, gently clean with alcohol swabs for longer-lasting adhesion.

For fragile surfaces: When applying to latex-coated walls, wallpaper, or partition boards, use low-adhesive or removable double-sided tape to prevent damage during removal.

Remove secrets:

Do not pull directly! It may tear the paper or leave residue.

The correct method is: use the low-speed setting of the hair dryer to blow on the tape for approximately 30 seconds. After the adhesive softens, gently pry it off from the edge using a ruler or plastic card, allowing for easy and complete removal.

If there is a small amount of residual adhesive, it can be wiped off with an eraser or gently removed by dipping a small amount of mentholated oil or alcohol.

3. Important Tips and Precautions

Select the right tape: Choose based on the item's weight. Use thin adhesive tape for lightweight paper, and opt for thick foam double-sided tape for heavy posters or acrylic boards.

Avoid 'threading': When cutting, use scissors to cut quickly and avoid slow pulling, otherwise the adhesive will be pulled out into threads, affecting both aesthetics and adhesion.

Temperature effect: In low-temperature environments, the adhesive strength of double-sided tape decreases. Before application, you may warm it by holding it in your palm or placing it near a radiator for brief heating.

Health Office: Please close after use to prevent children from touching or playing with it. Keep the work area well-ventilated.
