[ISLMA-Share] Adhering Posters to Wall

[Brian Andrusyk]

Gretchen,

I have been using painters tape for the past couple of years.   I have found the key is to use lots of little pieces.  I go all the way around and a row in the center and if it is a big poster I do more rows like a third of the way down.  It takes time, but then it is up for the entire school year.  Some posters have been up for years.

Subject: [ISLMA-Share] Adhering Posters to Wall

Good morning!

I am looking for recommendations for hanging posters on cinder block walls. Three of the four walls in the library are outside walls that must get damp with the change in weather. I have about 20 laminated posters hung up, but they keep falling down. I have tried packing tape, Teachers Tape, and poster adhesive. Any one have a sure fire remedy that works for them?

I am trying for it not to cost too much money. Any ideas?
