all of your equipment on top of the pre-cut grid.
Distribute until you have a suitable arrangement.
Leave adequate space between each piece of equipment.
- Light weight items
minimum separation: 1/2"
- Delicate light
weight items (e.g.. cameras, laptops) suggested separation:
1" to 1-1/2"
- Medium weight
items (10 to 20 lbs.): 1-1/2" to 2" of separation.
- Heavier items:
consider using a firmer material (closed cell Polyethylene foam)
or a combination of open cell Polyurethane with a cap of closed

Handy
hint: For reference
guide stick toothpicks in at four corners of plug to be removed.
CAREFULLY AND SLOWLY
remove whole plug in one piece.
-
Insert
equipment into designated areas. Item
should fit very snugly in all directions. With smaller pieces of equipment, save removed foam plugs;
cut to correct height and replace (your smaller equipment is now
easily accessible).
-
If
you find you’ve made a mistake and have any loose areas, cut off
corresponding piece from cutout and glue back to wall with spray
contact adhesive made for polyester foam (3M™
Super 77 Spray Adhesive is available at most art or
office supply stores). Follow the application directions on the spray can.
