Is it possible to use some sort of adhesive to make it stick more permanently? Has anyone tried?

I would not try another adhesive. This product should not be on the market because it does not work. It is not Safe-er, it is dangerous when people that need help rely on this product. If you use an adhesive to secure this product and the adhesive fails then you have taken away the liability that this company should have for selling an inferior product.

I don't know, but I doubt it. If the rubber suction cup is clean and not damaged, and if the surface is REALLY smooth, and if (on tiles) the cup is not too close to the grout line, the suction could hold for months. Thing is there are too many ifs to rely on if safety is the issue.

Yes, I have absolutely no problems with it sticking. I am very happy with the purchase and will buy one again when / if this wears out.

That was my primary reason for trying it, and it works where suction type mounts failed. Buy a 'repair' kit to have a spare adhesive block in the event you wish to move it. It really only sticks once.

Sorry I am way behind on reading my email been too busy. Yes they use an adhesive tape that is already in place, just have to peel and stick in place, if you read the instructions its pretty easy. Just takes time to make sure its right, bc once its stuck its stuck!

These have no adhesive back...it's just tough cardboard...but if you use a cloth glue like "Speed Sew" or something, you should be fine. But thats going to be pretty permanent I would think...

No and no. There is no adhesive. Hitting it with a heat gun will cause it to unravel, or worse, become a gooey mess.

i can only speak to self sticking. it is an adhesive backed tape. you peel off a thin film covering, and then stick it on. sticks well.

I remove mine all of the time, but it depends on how you apply. I did not use the strips to attach mine permanently, but use static to hold it in place. That works well for me.

No. I actually have to tear mine down cause it isn't sticking right and peels at the edges . I've even tried spray glue still doesn't,unless someone else has a better idea.

Mine just stuck on like a sticker. Be sure to peel the paper backing off...looks a little confusing at first.

The adhesive held great on as smooth surface, for me. Maybe you could use u-nails or construction adhesive.

Try cleaning the wall with a surface cleaner then when you place it back up wet the suction cup and it should stick. .

Hello, Polyethylene does not glue well - nothing really sticks to it. Your best bet would to be mechanically fasten instead, which has been our shop's solution to this. Or if you're up for a challenge you could do some more research and see if any of the many DIYers out there have some suggestions. Best of luck! Kind regards, Krista Plastic-Craft Products

Maybe if it is smooth, and if you are thinking of keeping it permanently I would suggest even putting extra glue on it. Ask for a sample, that would be your best solution.

Not really. Mine gets stuck too. Not much you can do but pull it off and reposition. It doesn't happen all the time. Maybe the manufacturer has a solution.

yes, patiently(and i mean very patiently) peel it and it to stick to and press it againt the desired surface. if you do it too fast it may tear up, so take your time and it should stay, mines did. good luck!!
