blue tack
Wife has stepped on some and I told her to put the trainer in the
freezer, expecting it to become brittle and flake off, But it didn't. I left it in the freezer over night and tried my self, this afternoon. Any other suggestions? Dave |

Dave Get some more Blu-Tak and use this to dab onto the piece stuck onto the trainer and it should come off - this works on Blu-Tak left on walls Malcolm |

Is there any better way of hanging posters on walls that doesn't require a re-paint when said posters are taken off later on. Dave. |

Haven't actually tried with a poster, but the 3M command thingies are pretty amazing. And much more expensive. -- Rod |

Anything 3M is expensive, although they have come up with some pretty nifty products over the years. |
