Oh, I planned on that for pictures and things on the walls, but didn't occur to me it would work on shelves!

I wonder if Michael's would have that? I assume it leaves no residue when you remove it?

ANYTHING you leave out on a shelf or counter WILL become a missile in an accident. put the stuff away and set it up again when you are parked.

YMMV, but it still sucks in an RV.

Michael's might. I tried a few stores locally, but didn't have any luck. As fast as Amazon ships, it just seemed easier to order thru them than check all the local stores

I've not had any problems removing it or with it leaving a residue. I've used it on laminate countertops and on my wood dinette table with no problem.

Didn't work well for me when used on vertical wall surface, but have never had anything come loose on horizontal surfaces.

Haven't tried it yet, but Lowe's has QuakeHOLD! -Your best defense against earthquakes. I believe Home Depot also has it. I'm going to get some and try it out. I'll report back.

Hopefully our driving won't mimic an earthquake, but hey, it's our first time in a 40' DP!

The large size Zots from Walmart work well. They are in the craft area. Just make sure to clean off the area with alcohol to remove any wax before using. Also the heavy duty double sided tape works. Again make sure to clean the area before using.
Almost everything in our MH is stuck down with Zots.
