Shame on 3M for bad instructions. At no point did I have an idea that the tape was going to stretch out like bubble gum. This is awesome! Thank you for this video!

This is an excellent instructional video. It just takes a minute or two to watch, but quickly explains the correct procedure. Well worth watching!!

A life-saving video, thank you so much. I wish I would’ve watched this before making my mistakes🤦🏻♀️
I accidentally pulled the tab forward. I had ripped part of the bottom of the strip. I came across your video when I was trying to figure out how to remove it after doing that. Very useful. Thank you
Thank you for the tip, brother. Worked like a charm. No damage to my bathroom door!
It worked ! Finished removing three hooks from my wall , Flawless ! My walls were newly painted just a few months prior so removing them with extra care. This was a little blessing 💕.
This was a great help! I've never understood the process, and you made it super simple. Thank you.

Worked for me, thanks. I've made the mistake in the past of continuing to pull until it snapped. This time I pulled, slid fingers up, pulled, slid, pulled, and it finally released. Thanks again!
Ahhh that’s how. Thank you as always Bill. You are a legend
Finally...I made a costly error months ago and have been too scared to remove the other one that was holding up a large painting. After watching this video. It took less that 15 seconds to remove properly. Wow...how easy! Thanks

A hair dryer will also work if you don’t have a heat gun handy, it’s just a bit slower 👍
It's so super nice
Thank you, thank you thank you!! The instructions from 3M are not comprehensive enough, especially for the various sizes. I used the large 7.5 lbs hook that required two strips and was able to remove it successfully without damage!!
Woooowww AWESOME! Thank you sooooooo much 🙏🏽😊

Thankyouuu
Hey do u do any handy man work? I'm in port Melbourne
But great instruction
Excellent instructions - Why doesn't 3M tell us this way to remove the hooks.
thank you so much ...the instructions on the packet to attach and remove are awful..this was really helpful
Thank you so much. I was guilty of doing everything wrong when removing the hooks
What about if i have another type, which is not 3m. is using a hair dryer or possibly alcohol some other methods to remove if there is no obvious way to remove another type of hook on paint without removing the paint from the wall?
awesomeness
Thanks for this. I would have cocked it up for sure 😅
Heat gun will bubble up the paint for some people just like my blow dryer did I would suggest dental floss works like a charm
Thank you!! Could the instructions on the back of the 3M package be any worse- both for installation and removal?
Can we re use these after removing?
Hi Bill ! Could you tell me the name of the thing behind 3M hooks ! I need it for me curtain ! Thank for your video ! That's helpful !!
Legendary
Thank you! It worked but snapped so hard that bruised my finger. Careful
A hair dryer would of saved me. Thanks for sharing.

What I have nothing to pull on it’s snapped off?
#WallHero!
Damn who knew it would take that much effort to remove that adhesive tab 🧐
Often, even when using this technique, the adhesive strip tears off and cannot be retrieved from under the hook. So then what do you do?
3m should have that in their instructions.
I used a similar product which had no labels on the tags so I just ripped it off thinking it was rubbish . So now I have no tag to pull the clips off the wall What can I use now to ease the stickiness to safely remove it

Use a heat gun or hair dryer to heat the adhesive and remove it with a plastic scraper slowly. Any residue left behind can be cleaned with a goo remove preferably a citrus based product 👍
Life saver after my dum**ss took a piece of my wall with me. Thanks!
was following tutorial until both tabs snapped midway through and then i took a chunk out of my wall 👍
I’d like to see it removed from a plaster wall (not wood door or drywall wall.).
I'm stuck on step 1, that outer hook part does *not* want to come off. I think whoever stuck these on managed to get the outer hook also stuck to the tape...
Wish I saw this an hour ago 💀
Me watching this after i broke the strip :)
Vest how to yet!

The hook you took off was on a timber door totally different to taking a hook off a wall surface haha
Those fraking hooks have the worst User Experience
It didn't work!!🤦♀️
This is a sign of a terrible product. The stretch tab should never, ever break under any circumstances. You should never have to use alternate methods to get the hook off. I will never use them again.
Better idea is not to buy this crap for ur walls.
Thank you so much!!!
