Default What's your favorite thin-wall anchor?

Mobile homes (not RVs) have this pathetic, thin board stuff for walls. It
won't even hold a sheet metal screw.

There are so many anchors available for drywall, but which is best for
this
type of wall? (Trying to mount a 5-foot x 1.5-foot mirror using 6 plastic
edge-grips.)

Suggestions? (Extra points for URL to show an image of the type you're
referring to...)



Get a roll of Velcro with glue backing and cut it into long strips. Put
them in a oven at around 100 degrees for a few minutes. Apply to the wall
and to the mirror. Let cool and then mount the mirror. Be sure the surfaces
are clean before applying the Velcro.
