Is sticky putty hard to get off lockers?

Question

I am decorating my locker this year and to hold up my fabric someone suggested sticky putty. I have to be able to get everything off of my locker at the end of the year...will sticky putty come off easly without leaving a mark? thanks

Answer 1

it should, but you should use sticky tack.

its yellow and it can stick to anything.

it feels like gum, and its a little different than sticky putty.

you can buy it in the office supply section at walmart!

Answer 2

It's fine, you can find the yellow poster putty or the white. I've had more luck with the yellow, sticks better. But one word of caution, it pulls paint right off walls and painted surfaces, though I have never used it on a painted metal locker and with that you might have a lot better luck. I'd take the chance on the yellow poster putty. Have a great year!

Answer 3

Get some Goo Gone and a paint scraper when you need to get it off. The Goo Gone is orangy smelling, so it's not overly abusive.
