How will I know that I’m using the new Post-it® Brand Super Sticky Notes and not the original Post-it® Brand Notes?
You’ll know the new Post-it® Brand Super Sticky Notes in four distinct ways:

  1. The packaging clearly says “Super Sticky.”
  2. The unique daffodil, orchid and ocean colours make them stand out.
  3. On the back of each sheet, you’ll see the Super Sticky logo.
  4. They’re Super Sticky! This line of Post-it® Brand Notes is designed to hold stronger and longer*--then remove cleanly from most surfaces.

How is the new Post-it® Brand Super Sticky adhesive different from original Post-it® Brand Notes’ adhesive?
We did not just add more adhesive! Post-it® Brand Super Sticky Notes’ adhesive contains patented additives that increase their ability to adhere to difficult surfaces and help them stay sticky longer. So use them for self-reminders, notes to others and for making lists, knowing they’ll stick stronger to most surfaces*. Post-it® Brand Super Sticky Notes hold stronger than standard Post-it® Brand Notes to:

Car dashboards Varnished wood doors/trim
Computer monitors Textured plastic folders
Glass/Mirrors Painted metal furniture
Varnished wood panels Glossy photo paper
Leather purse/briefcase Manila folders
Refrigerator/Freezer door

Will the new adhesive system harm paper surfaces?
Post-it® Brand Super Sticky Notes are designed for non-paper surfaces and will work well on most typical household and office paper surfaces. They’ll help you take your grocery list from the fridge to your purse to the dashboard of your car. They’ll help you post notes to your family on the kitchen cabinets and home computer screens. Just be careful and test them first on any delicate surfaces or thin, easy-to-tear paper.

Do Post-it® Brand Super Sticky Notes leave residue behind?
Like the original Post-it® Brand Note, Post-it® Brand Super Sticky Notes remove cleanly from most surfaces. A few surfaces like clay-coated magazine papers and certain vinyl or plastic surfaces may cause a small amount of residue to transfer.

Are there any surfaces not recommended for Super Sticky Notes?
Post-it® Brand Super Sticky Notes are not recommended for use on delicate surfaces like very thin parchment or tissue papers or some antique furnishings. As with most adhesive products, they may not stick well to surfaces treated with cleaning or reconditioning products.

If I copy or fax Post-it® Brand Super Sticky Notes will they still be legible?
All three of the Post-it® Brand Super Sticky Note colours (Daffodil, Orchid and Ocean) copy well enough to be read and Daffodil copies the best! The Orchid and Ocean colours do not fax well so choose Daffodil for faxing.

Why only limited sizes and colours?
