How to use Command™ Strips without damaging your rented walls

Frequently asked questions

See all FAQs

  • Command™ adhesive holds strongly to a variety of surfaces around the home including painted walls, and stained or varnished wood. It’s also ideal for surfaces that are tricky to attach to such as tiles, glass, stainless steel and melamine. Command™ Strips are only suitable for robust surfaces, so are not suitable for wallpaper.

  • Command™ Strips are designed to remove cleanly, by stretching very slowly and very straight down against the wall, to break the adhesive seal gradually. Follow the pack instructions and remember to hold the strip at the top with the other hand when removing and to never pull the strip towards you – only straight down.

  • The one-hour wait ensures that the adhesive has had enough time to build strong adhesion to the wall or surface before any weight is placed on it. After initial application we always recommend that you remove the frame (Command™ Picture Strips) or Hook Piece (Command™ Hooks) from the wall, in order to press firmly on the strips for 30 seconds. Leave for at least one hour before rehanging/reattaching.
