| I'm just wondering if anybody else is having this problems on their C channel and end cap signs always coming down. I've taped them, velcoved them and even a manger has glued some of them and they still come down any suggestion on what else to use we are going through double face tape like it's water. | |

that the new res signing?
we used Command 3M Command Strips Decorating Clips and put them on the end to hold the signs in place |

| Ratmaze.....you're going to laugh,but we took sandpaper to the backs of those signholders and THEN used double sided tape. There apparently is an oily film of some sort on them that doesn't adhere to the tape or anything else you use. Also,check to see if there is an oil based paint on the end caps. | |

Aren't you supposed to send a Help Ticket about that? I've got an interesting story to tell about that, but will leave that for later.
You're NOT supposed to solve problems yourself, you know. Didn't someone get busted for having a contraband calendar on their cart during an inspection?  Use what THEY give you. Remember --- THEY know so much better than you do when it comes to processes. If they didn't think of these things, that's not your problem!

ROFLMAO!!!!! I am using what they give me that is why they are falling off and if I wrote a help ticket they'd come back and say just do what you have to. I'll have to try the sand paper trick thanks and I use the bracket you set your peg hooks on put them at the bottom of the end cap signs it helps a little with the weight. I put a channel up yesterday and it's already down today. |

| You talking about those endcaps in electronics? I've noticed that the ones in say, HI or L&G usually stay up once you get them up but in electronics, it's so hot that I think it just melts the adhesive right off. | |
