Mine worked great but our walls aren't plaster. I think it would work if you made sure to find the wall studs and then drilled carefully into those. Can't hammer into plaster you must drill the hole and then use those little plastic plugs then screw into that.

Hello Michelle, Thank you for your question. My shower is of natural stone. If the wall is prepared correctly, the hook will work. To mount the hook please follow these tips (and absolutely not meant to insult in any way), * Make sure the area you plan to stick the hook is clean and dry. Typical shower residue (soap residue, conditioner splatter, moisture, etc.) will impede the adhesion of the hook. * Clean the surface with isopropyl rubbing alcohol, wipe gently, let dry. Do not use household cleaners. Many household cleaners leave behind a very thin layer of residue that affects how strongly the adhesive will bond to the surface. * Once you have cleaned to area you plan to stick the mirror, please allow enough time for this area to completely dry (remember tile is porous and will absorb moisture). This is the main reason that a hook will fail to adhere. As such, please wait a couple of hours after cleaning the wall to place the hook. * When applying the hook to your shower, please try applying constant pressure on it for 10-15 seconds in the clean, dry spot. * For best results, let the adhesive "set" for 24 hours before hanging the mirror on the hook. This ensures that the adhesive has had enough time to build strong adhesion to the wall or surface. If the hook does not do what it is supposed to do, we will to replace it. We stand behind our products 100%...without question or excuse. I will send one in the mail to you immediately. Please contact me with your address and I will have one on the way.

The issue isn't which one - you can use most premium mastic products - the real issue is making sure that the surface behind the mirror is completely dry/cured (drywall mud, primer and paint). If the the surface behind the mirror is still fresh and somewhat damp it will cause adhesion problems and sometimes depending on the type of paint used (oil or water based) it can cause the mastic to burn through silvering on the mirror - trapped moisture can ruin the protective mirror backing - so make sure the surface you're mounting your mirror to is completely dry. Gunther mastic is a good product.

After it is mounted, your mirror will be flush against the wall or door it is mounted on. My mirror is 30" x 20" mounted on a cabinet door in the bathroom. The screws that come with it are rather long so will be able to handle mirrors for any thickness.

I would say "no"...this is a nice, substantial mirror...It should go into the wall. I love mine!

I don't know about plaster since there might be a lath in the plaster. Mine works great through 4 walls and 1 floor over a distance of 140 feet. The walls are standard sheetrock/2x4 and the floor is wood. Hope this helps.

should be fine. to make extra sure just substitute the screws it comes with for some longer ones and drill into the studs. NOTE: Be careful not to over tighten the screws with putting your mirror in, you could crack the mirror.

Hmm...if your mirror is mounted across uneven surfaces, it, too, will be uneven. Assuming that is your plan, yes you shd still be able to use these mirror clips. The challenge will be drilling into the tile. The uneven

Yes I think so, we use it under our bed as a accent light so I imagine if you go around the mirror a couple of time it should do the work.

Actually, I haven't mounted mine yet. I will eventually use it for putting on my makeup and it's a good size/diameter for that. As far as extension size goes, you'll need to figure out how far from the wall it needs to extend for your use and see if the mirror will accommodate that.

I wouldn't do it. I have the same mount and on the inside cover of the manual on page 2 where it says caution: paragraph 4- "This product is not designed for use in metal stud walls" call the customer service number to be sure, they are very helpful.

I used it on my wall and it was pretty messy. I ended up fixing it with spray adhesive. It may work on a mirror but if I did it on a mirror I'd just use the paper and spray adhesive

I honestly don't know what my walls are made out of... Maybe drywall? Is that the same as plaster? I think it is and it seems to work ok, but I don't hang heavy things on it. Jewelry frame, hair tie caddy, small photo frames, and ect...

It would work ok, but it wouldn't have the classy look of glass mirror. It would probably be a bit wavy-looking, regardless, and it can be tough to remove bubbles that form underneath, during or after the gluing process. A better bet might be to find a remodeling company that is looking to recycle old mirror from their projects. Also, if you're tempted to try the Mylar, I say go ahead; it is pretty cheap, and the results might work well enough for you.

The material is very reflective. If applied correctly it should provide a nice reflective surface but I don't think it would equate to the same reflection you get from a mirror.

Dale , it does' nt work on a painted wall . I have bought both the 10inch & smaller mirrors . I tried on my painted/ plastered wall. It simply does not stay . Lack of suction. It stays well on my wardrobe door mirror & Also can stick on to the other doors ( vinyl covered?) of my wardrobe .

If the plastered walls are pretty smooth, I don't think it will be a problem. If they are textured, you many run into issues with it sticking. This product isn't super sticky. I would recommend ordering a small amount to see if it works first. The product came faster than expected.
