What kind of metal is this made of? I am wondering if it would be able to adhere magnets for a weather barrier cover. Thank you for helping.

Yes, you can put the magnetic cover over it...that's exactly what I did. I was very pleased with it.

It is made of steel so it's magnetic and paintable. Mine didn't come with the center screw to attach it to the fan, but I picked one up at our local home center for a buck or so.

Yes, I just tried it. I do not know what the metal is but it is a good deal and looks good

There is only one magnet sewn into the screen. When it is windy, the one magnet does not hold it closed. Because it is a screen like fabric, it is not heavy. I purchased additional magnets but they were too small. I would purchase the screen unit again and try stronger versions of the magnets suggested.

Sue, Hi! This product is metal. The magnets are strong enough to stay in place without slipping. It has worked really well for me. I placed it on the side of the refrigerator and I really like it. Also, when my grandkids come over, I just push the two pieces together more tightly and that way they only tear off one towel at a time. I wish I had found this years ago.

It's aluminum. Therefore it's not magnetic. It can be spray painted. Any paint that works on metal surface will also work.

Changing my response - Ken might be right. However ...I just used a magnet on every inch of the product and the only part that was clearly ferrous was the small hand held shower head. Just FYI - the magnet I used did not stick to my metal pipes coming out of the wall that provide water to this shower head. So, it is also possible that this product is made with some metal that isn't iron. I must however say that it's been working great for me so far (minus the water stains), but yes, seems pricey if it is made of plastic. Hopefully this helps you make your decision.

It is not magnetic, but it is metal mesh, and though I can feel some reaction from it to a magnet, it won't actually stick to it.

I think it's aluminum, just because of how light it is, and I think I tried to get a magnet to stick to it with no luck. Whatever it is it's quite heavy duty, but doesn't weigh too much.

I don't know exactly but the material is well made and I expect would be acceptable for that application. It's the same material used for your refrigerator magnets.

No, it is not magnetic. I just tried sticking a magnet to it. The pole is metal, but that doesn't help you any. This is a great stand for the price. Mine is nice and sturdy, and it works for my sheet music and practicing guitar.

I used it to attach magnets to glass. It worked exceptionally well especially after the recommended curing time. No doubt it would attach the rearview mirror to the windshield if you can find a way to secure it while it's curing (tape?), my question would be if it would hold up to the heat and cold extremes. If my rearview mirror came off the glass, I would certain give this product a try, it really work on my application. (It was a rather heavy tempered glass plate (with sentimental value so I really didn't want it falling and breaking) that I wanted to put on my fridge. The glue was quite loose to work with, but cured like nothing I've seen before!! Super-duper strong.

It's an extremely powerful magnet. I don't have a tarp to test it out but my strong sense is if you got a few of these they'd hold a tarp down easily. But remember there's a lot of "non-metal" material in cars these days. Just sayin...

Since this is a magnetic sheet other magnets may stick to it, but they may not as well. It depends on how the polarity is oriented between the two. You would be better off with a sheet of steel, a magnetic white board, or using some of the magnetic paint.

Magnet material is strong enough to use for custom decal for vehicle door. Magnet material is strong enough to layer (one over the other on a vertical surface).

The plate and magnet need to have contact (face to face). Not sure if it would work if exposed to the weather.

The metal is powder coated, but there are holes to slide the pulleys around. I wouldn't trust leaving it outside, you'll end up with problems.

The magnets are pretty good. I would say that they probably would as long as nothing is creating more force hitting them. Such as an open window with a strong breeze coming thru. If just using the sun blockers for a patio narrow window for example go for it. Make sure you are using them with METAL. I have aluminum in part of my house and used double faced tape. (the magnet can be turned around) Anyway.. yes they hold much more..

I'm pretty sure the strip is aluminum, so if it is, magnets will not stick. I'll check mine to see tomorrow.
