This is how easy it is to take advantage of all the benefits of tesa® Power.Kit technology.
No drill holes, no noise, no dirt, enormous holding power, and residue-free removal - there are many arguments in favor of using our revolutionary adhesive solution.To ensure that tesa® Power.Kit technology can develop its full adhesive performance, we have summarized the most important instructions for you on this page.
Easy attachment and removal in six steps
Note: Please be sure to also look at the assembly instructions, which can be found in the respective product packaging. In individual cases, there may be slight differences in the assembly.
EASY-ON - easy to attach:
01Clean the surface very thoroughly
Once you have found the right place for mounting, you should clean this area intensively. Only on surfaces that are free of dust, grease, lime and dry will the combination of adhesive mass and adapter achieve maximum holding power.
Use a clean, soft cloth for basic cleaning. Please do not use any non-stick cleaning agents or cleaners containing silicone, as these substances impair the adhesive effect. After basic cleaning, clean with rubbing alcohol. If a cleaning cloth is included with your accessory, please use it.
If you want to play it safe, wipe the area again with a dry, soft and clean cloth.
02Stick the adapter to the wall
In our assortment you will find various adapters to properly mount the bathroom accessories. Among other things, they are used for fixing toilet paper holders, toilet brush sets, towel hooks and soap dispensers.
All adapters are similar in design and work on the same principle: first remove the protective film of the adhesive ring. Press the adapter firmly to the surface for a few seconds. If you are mounting a bathroom accessory with two adapters, make sure that the distance between the adapters is correct and they are aligned correctly.
Info: Be careful not to touch the adhesive surface of the adapter with your fingers. Otherwise, new grease could get onto the surface and reduce the load-bearing capacity.
03Fill the adapter with the adhesive
Now hold the applicator in the larger opening of the adapter. Now carefully squeeze the adhesive out of the applicator and fill the ring with the adhesive mass until it appears at the smaller hole of the adapter.
Important: Please do not press or touch the adapter now! Cavities could be created that impair the holding force.
04Let the glue cure
To ensure maximum holding power, please wait 12 hours. The adhesive is then completely cured.
If adhesive mass protrudes from the sides of the adapter, you can carefully remove it.
05Mount the bathroom accessory
Now attach the bathroom accessory to the adapter by fixing the accessory with the tiny screw.
EASY-OFF
01Remove the accessory
The disassembly of the adhesive adapter is as easy as the assembly! First unscrew the bath accessory from the adapter.
Now grasp the adapter ring with a pipe wrench and simply turn it clockwise carefully from the wall.
02Remove adhesive residue easily
If adhesive residue remains on the surface, you can gently scrape it off with a thin spatula or scraper.
03Finish!
Voila! Your tiles are as clean as before and not damaged.
Note: You do not have to dispose of the bathroom accessory, you can reuse it with a new adapter. So ideal if you want to redecorate your bathroom!

Power.Kit Adapters & Adhesives
Easily find your fitting Power.Kit Adapter with our easy to read tables.
Unfortunately there is not one adapters that fit all. Therefore, we have created an overview about which adapter suits to which product.
How is it possible that the tesa® Power.Kit technology is capable of withstanding such great loads but can still be easily removed?
Our adhesive system is indeed capable of withstanding great loads while it can also be removed easily. The reason for this is that the consistent elastic single-component adhesive is highly resistant to permanent tension and shear forces such as those applied during normal use – for instance a wet towel on a rail. However, the adhesive loses strength when subjected to rotary movements, which is what enables the Easy-Off removal function. After the removal of the adapter, the adhesive residues can easily be removed from smooth surfaces using a ceramic hob cleaner or glass scraper, while a little silicone remover and a coarse brush will be needed on rough surfaces.
Is it possible to attach objects other than those enclosed using the tesa® Power.Kit technology?
It is of course possible to use the tesa® Power.Kit technology to attach all kinds of objects – therefore we offer the tesa® Adhesive Screw as part of our tesa® Smart Mounting System. It is based on the tesa® Power.Kit technology and gives you the opportunity to freely mount objects of your choice. (Please be aware of load capacities and special instructions.) However, the tesa bath accessory products which are tailored specifically to the tesa® Power.Kit adapters ensure that the adapters are well-hidden and well-integrated into the object.
