Peeled the paint right off

I used many different sizes of the command product line do hang some Christmas decorations for one of my clients, instead of using nails, like their add says to do and I made sure I stayed with in the weight limits of the hooks. I followed the instructions and used rubbing alcohol to prepare the wall surface and just hours after I left stuff started falling off the wall taking big chunks of paint. Fearing for the rest of the stuff I hung, I went back and started taking down the other items and when I stretched the tabs the way they instruct, I still took paint off the wall. I would have been better off using small nails. USE NAILS NOT THIS PRODUCT!
The Large Command Hooks work great outside of the shower door to hang a bath towel and a robe. The hooks have been attached to the sheetrock adjacent to the shower door for over two years without any loosening of the adhesive. The hooks work great for hanging a towel and robe, since the sheetrock is too narrow to attach a towel rack and a large clothing hook.
used large hooks to hang christmas garland on my brick wall. did not want to nail hooks. garland keeps falling off. Can't figure out why. very disappointed.
I love the 3M Command Hooks and use them every year when hanging all of my holiday decorations. I use all of the different sized hooks. I use them to hang wreaths, garland and I use the cord organizers to hide my extension cords. I love how they come off of the walls with nothing left behind. This is a wonderful product which I recommend to all of my friends.
As a mom of three small children I am constantly having to remind them to pick their things up off of the floor. After discovering the genius of Command Hooks, I have bought dozens of them to put on the backs of all of our bedroom and bathroom doors. Now instead of bath towels on the floor, they're on the hook. Instead of jackets and coats littering the floor, they're hanging up on the backs of the doors, where we'll always know where to find them.
I used these hooks to help make a neat and orderly space by my front door, now nothing gets forgotten, and my purse is always where I left it. Reusable shopping bags get hung by the door after they are emptied so they are remembered next time we go to the store and now they get used more than ever!
