How do you apply non-sticky side art?
« on: December 06, 2005, 06:43:59 pm »
I couldn't find an answer to this question in a search, so I wanted to know if anyone has tried this.  I can get my artwork printed on glossy paper for $2/sq. ft, but it's not sticky.  So if anyone has an idea for how best to apply this to the side of my cabinet, let me know.  Thanks.

Use 3M Super 77 spray adhesive. Spray adhesives vary GREATLY depending on brand. The 3M brand is fairly expensive but I know it works. I won't use anything else.

1UP used a similar method, try his site.

Look in ARTWORK.

(and he used Krylon spray adhesive and had trouble... 3M!)

I like Super 77. It's VERY sticky though. Use it very lightly.

I used to use super 77 in model gliders (foamies).  Spray it on and let it tack up for a few minutes and then stick.  Stuff is great.

I'd really like this artwork as well.  Does anybody know where I can get it?

Edit:  He has the download for the maze art on his site.  Then its just a matter of dropping character art on there.  I love it.  Thanks!!
