[BCMA] Alternatives to 3M Mounting Adhesive for labels?

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv]

We used to mount text on something similar to foam core then mount them to the walls, but our preference for a while now has been towards printing onto a clear label stock -something like an avery clear shipping label (7665). 

We develop a label template in word using the cells function, printing two or three labels on each sheet. You can set up cells to print a thin border to assist with cutting out the labels. 

All the best,

George
