FAQ & Tips

Magnetic is made of statically charged polypropylene film. Rather than using glue to adhere, Magnetic clings using a stable static charge. Remember rubbing a balloon against your hair and sticking it to the wall as a kid? The same science lies behind Magnetic.

Magnetic is a major improvement over regular sticky notes in almost every way. Its front, colored side is a smooth, satiny surface that makes your handwriting more beautiful than ever before, while its back side is dry erasable. Magnetic provides LONG-LASTING, full-surface adhesive coverage (no dog-earing!) using static charge instead of glue, which means no sticky, messy residue. It is 100% recyclable. But best of all? You can stick and slide Magnetic around without even removing it from the wall!

The duration of charge depends on several factors, such as surface area, external environment, dust levels, and the texture of the target surface. In ideal conditions, Magnetic Notes can stick for as long as several weeks to several months, while Magnetic Pads can stick for as long as several months to a year. Magnetic products perform better in dry, temperate, dust-free environments. Like any adhesive stationery, Magnetic does not stick forever. When we invent something that does, you’ll be the first to know!

The applications for Magnetic are endless. Magnetic is an amazing tool for brainstorming, mind-mapping, planning, working in teams, teaching, agile development, entertaining, drawing, decorating your interior, and of course, leaving notes for your family or colleagues. And those are just a few of the practical uses!

If used properly, Magnetic can stick for weeks and even months at a time. Here are a few tips to ensure long-lasting stick. First, make sure you remove only one sheet at a time. Magnetic is made of thin material, so it is easy to accidentally remove two or three sheets at a time, drastically reducing their static charge. When peeling it away from the packaging, rub your fingers together on the sheet to make sure you’re grabbing just one. Second, use Magnetic only on dry, dust-free, smooth surfaces indoors, away from moisture and air conditioning. Third, slide, don’t remove. One of Magnetic’s coolest features is that you can slide it around without removing it from the wall. Fourth, touch Magnetic as little as possible – it works best when clung to a surface and left alone.
