What You’ll Need:

  • Your Saturday Neon LED sign (weighing 16 lbs or less)
  • 3M Command Strips (Heavy-Duty recommended)
  • Rubbing alcohol or a clean cloth

Step 1: Prepare the Wall and Sign

  1. Clean the Wall Surface
    • Use rubbing alcohol or a damp cloth to clean the area where you'll mount the sign.
    • Ensure the surface is dry and free of dust or grease for optimal adhesion.

      Clean the Back of the Sign

    • Wipe down the mounting areas on the back of your sign to remove any dust.

Step 2: Plan the Layout

  1. Choose the Location
    • Select a flat, smooth surface for best results.
    • Avoid overly textured walls or surfaces with wallpaper.
    • Ensure proximity to an outlet or power source

Step 3: Attach Command Strips to the Sign

  1. Prepare the Strips
    • Separate the Command Strips according to the package instructions.
    • For heavier signs (up to 16 lbs), use multiple strips to distribute the weight.

      Stick Strips to the Sign

    • Press one side of each strip firmly onto the designated mounting spots on the back of the sign.
    • Ensure each strip is securely attached.

Step 4: Mount the Sign on the Wall

  1. Position the Sign
    • Align the sign with your pencil marks on the wall.

      Attach to the Wall

    • Press the sign firmly against the wall where the Command Strips will adhere.
    • Hold for 30 seconds to ensure a strong bond.

      Secure the Adhesion

    • Gently pull the sign from the bottom to separate the strips, leaving half on the wall.
    • Press firmly on the strips left on the wall for another 30 seconds.
    • Reattach the sign by aligning the strips and pressing firmly until they click.

Step 5: Final Checks

  1. Test the Stability
    • Gently press on different areas of the sign to ensure it's securely mounted.


Additional Tips

  • Temperature Considerations:
    • Apply the Command Strips in temperatures above 50°F (10°C) for best results.

      Removing the Sign:
