I have to agree with 3M VHB, not only very strong ( this video shows it
used in building a sky scraper http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OtrDvDvF5I)
Also when removed does not leave residue like other tapes. However for
very long applications I suggest having the printing company mount a cleat
on the back of the panel. A cleat can be as small as 1/8" hardly adding to
profile and it is a mechanical connection which won't fail due to humidity,
wall surface etc.

3M VHB tape is the best. Holds strong for a long time.

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Adhesive for Foam Core on Wall
Hello!
I'm working with a historical society who wishes to mount their foam core graphics to the wall for as long as possible
(aka for a permanent exhibit). Do you have a particular kind of tape or adhesive that you use? Would regular foam tape
do the job? The graphics range in size from quite small to about 20"x24".
I realize that the contents of the wall and the humidity of the room will affect the tape's longevity--and that
nothing is forever--, but I wanted to ask the list what you would recommend.
Thanks in advance,
Lindsey
