Will the adhesive remove the paint on my walls if i try and take off the strip later on in the years to come?

Yes more than likely. I have on my boat and the adhesive is auto grade. I cleaned really well with alcohol before I placed on the Fiberglass. I even placed an unhooked up strip under my swim platform to see how well it would stay and still there after a season of boating. You might be able to remove with a blow dryer from paint but not sure.

I don't see how it would, it's just like a sticker almost. It didn't stick long for me and fell off. I had to use superglue to reapply it to my truck bed. Maybe a wall will be different.

While I cannot guarantee that it will not remove paint, my experience is that it removes very easily...I used it to tape a runner to a floor for a wedding and it did not harm the finish.

I have only used it on glass, and it sticks REALLY well to glass - so I'm thinking the adhesive would probably peel paint off a wall. Perhaps you could use this adhesive mounted on glass - on a floating glass frame? or on vinyl, which IS safe for walls.

The adhesive is pretty strong. If you were to try to remove this product, you would probably lift some of any underlying paint, depending on the quality and age of that paint. But, I don't think it would do any serious damage to the wall. I did a test piece on a wall with a decent paint job, and I was able to remove with no damage at all.

It depends on the final outcome you desire. If you are planning to put it up and leave it up, it will stick. The color is sheer so make sure the paint is solid in color. When you take it down it may peel paint from the wallpaper underneath it.

It doesn't leave any trace, but you need to make sure you pull the strips DOWN!! and not out towards you because if you do, you will rip the drywall. Just pull down, and keep pulling and it miraculously just comes undone. I used them on brand new painted walls (and removed them) and I didn't have a problem. If you use them in a humid room like a bathroom, use 2.

The wallpaper would not leave marks but removing the wallpaper could leave marks depending on what you are covering and what you use to remove it. Removing wallpaper is a difficult and time consuming task! If you decide to do it anyway, painting the wallpaper would not make it more difficult to remove or damage the surface underneath, especially if you use the newer latex paint! Good luck!

I have a textured wall so it easily comes off like a sticker would. Package states it shouldn't remove any paint but it also said how to remove.

I wouldn't. It does use very sticky backing (so not to peel the paint from the wall when you remove it) . I can easily see it coming off when you build up humidity from taking a hot shower or shave.

I repositioned my bumptek strip when first applying it and there was no damage to the paint. I haven't tried removing it, though. Good luck -CR

I can't honestly say that i know. I don't want the paint off. I would try a chemical stripper.

Absolutely not :0) You put it up with wallpaper paste so taking it down will require a LOT of work and you will have to resurface the wall. This will NOT "peel" off the wall.

I would say yes it will leave a residue. The back is very stick and I remember having to pull a small piece up and it leaving a tacky residue behind. You can use goo gone or another adhesive remover to help.

In my experience, the success of removing the adhesive from paper depends heavily on the hardness of the paper. Paper that has a smooth, hard surface fares better than paper that has a fibrous surface. If your wall art is at all valuable, I'd be hesitant to use this product.

I read the same thing. However I think it depends on the material you are stripping off. I used it for a heavily painted surface and it did not do it. I also used it on a varnished surface and it was not able to be used again, I had to dispose of it.

I think it might peel off paint. It has a pretty tacky/sticky/grippy adhesive. I'd go for removable vinyl instead. It would stay up for even a couple years and still come off well. The permanent is supposed to stay.

Yep, the came off my painted walls just fine. I would make sure to try to do it when you have some extra sets of hands around. Just pull it off slowly and evenly though, otherwise the vinyl will stretch.
