Mirror Adhesive
What is everyone using for adhearing a mirror to a wall.
Mirror size is 24"wide by 36" tall. I thought about using some 3M auto moulding tape, that crap lasts forever on a vehicle. Are there now actual mirror tapes available? |

Re: Mirror Adhesive
The only thing I have used is that black junk that gets everywhere. Why not use clips? this mirror is small enough

Re: Mirror AdhesiveQuote:
I wanted to glue it up and then make a frame with some small trim to match the rest of the bath. Most white framed mirrors seem to be of poor quality, junk. I am not paying a butt ton of money for one. |

Re: Mirror AdhesiveQuote:
If you are going to frame it why do you want to glue it to the wall?...I have a 4' x 6' mirror in my bath held up with these. My bath has an oriental theme. Just screw some 1x around the mirror to the studs...then use glue and brads to attach your frame to the 1x's.
