Drill wall or 3M tape wall?

[ksapple]

If drill wall, next time can plaster and paint, small area.
Pro:
Can hold heavier weight

Con:
wall gt hole

If 3M tape it
Pro:
No hole (but paint still may peel)

Con:
max 2Kg


which is better leh?

depends on what u put

Depends how heavy is the object you want to hang. If have drill, best is to drill. Stronger and definitely cheaper than 3M strong tape

for my blinds motor that need to lift a 2.6 m long blind and the wall just happens to be a metal structural beam I drill just below the beam and put it 3m vhb tape over the hole then screw in the holder to the wall

seems to be holding steady that way

afterall its for permanent fixture. good for fixing cracks also. if want something which can be removed, then shouldn't stick anything heavy on the wall. just use pedestal and put in front of the wall can riao.

for electronics, stick the brackets instead of sticking the cctv to the wall directly. spoil riao still can take out from the bracket and replace with new cctv

If you use those tape that can hold super well, like epoxy, VHB, or whatever.
When you remove, there's a high chance that the plaster, or coats of wall peeling off and cause ugly marks.
Then clean adhesive off with alcohol may also rub away the paint.
Even if you manage to remove without damaging the wall, the paint may look different because that covered part is not exposed to oxidation or UV as much, most likely will create a patch and you will need to repaint.

So I will definitely recommend to just drill.
When you no longer need that hole, you just cover back with putty and file off.
Only problem is must paint back.
But you can also reuse the hole for other purpose or cover it with other fixtures.
