What's wrong with Liquid Nails? I'm genuinely interested to find out! --Mike Everything I know, I learned from SBS. LATEST: Frame Complete http://metricon-mercer.livejournal.com Re: Mirrors 15Oct 30, 2007 4:48 pm Cynarion….it worries me that people who don’t know better stick things to their walls with liquid nails.
This makes a hell of a mess down the track if the suck object needs to come off the wall!

You would have to be careful about weights etc, but might be worth investigating. Ray. Second Time 'Round Re: Mirrors 17Oct 30, 2007 5:55 pm had thought of 3M but didn't think that they would make anything that would support the weight, i suppose i could have a look around or maybe just put alot of them on the mirror
I'm with Michelle on the liquid nails thing, i don't think the wall would look to good if you tried to remove the mirror later, i can just icture a huge rectangle shape of missing plaster and cement render Building again . . with Redink Pre-start 04/12 Keys - 03/13 Finishing off. . .

I know the green backing stuff you are talking about on the back…..that’s the actual mirror backing. Does the mirror have a frame around it with some type of scalloped edging with holes in it?
