Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. Is this sign suitable for outdoor use?
While the metal construction provides some durability, the sign is primarily intended for indoor or sheltered outdoor areas to ensure longevity and prevent weather-related damage.
2. Will the adhesive damage painted or delicate surfaces?
The adhesive is designed for secure attachment without damaging typical surfaces like wood, metal, or painted walls when removed carefully. For very delicate or newly painted surfaces, testing on a small area is recommended.
3. Can the sign be removed and reused?
This sign’s adhesive is permanent for strong bonding. Removal may damage the adhesive or the surface, so it is intended for semi-permanent installations.
