Abstract

A method for attaching an object to a surface using an adhesive. Prior to applying the adhesive, the surface is prepared by rubbing the surface with an eraser. After rubbing the surface, the eraser dust is wiped away, the adhesive is applied to the surface and the object is placed against the adhesive.

We claim:  
     
         1 . A method of attaching an object to a surface, comprising: 
 rubbing the surface with a rubber or soap eraser; and    using adhesive material at the rubbed surface to hold the object to the surface.    
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising rubbing the eraser on a surface of the object.  
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1 , said using comprising applying adhesive material to at least one rubbed surface.  
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 1 , said using comprising applying double sided adhesive tape to at least one of the rubbed surface and an object, and applying pressure to urge the object and surface together with the double sided adhesive tape therebetween.  
     
     
         5 . A kit for mounting an object to a surface, comprising: 
 a rubber or soap eraser; and    an adhesive material to hold an object to a surface rubbed by the eraser.    
     
     
         6 . The kit of  claim 5 , further comprising an object for mounting to the surface.  
     
     
         7 . The kit of  claim 6 , wherein the object is a wire organizer.  
     
     
         8 . The kit of  claim 7 , wherein the wire organizer includes: 
 an elongated housing having a back wall, a front wall and top and bottom walls;    an elongated opening formed in said front wall of said elongated housing, said elongated opening being defined by inwardly and rearwardly extending portions of said front wall forming hooks;    a multiplicity of retainer loops formed of a strip of a tough, resilient, abrasive-resistant resin, each retainer loop having a bight portion positioned outwardly of said front wall of said elongated housing and two legs extending through said elongated opening in said front wall to position the distal ends of each retainer loop inside said elongated housing;    a hook engaging notch formed in the distal end of each of said legs of said retainer loops, said hook engaging notches each having an inwardly extending notch portion and a rearwardly extending notch portion adapted to receive said hooks to preclude withdrawal of the retainer loops through said elongated opening; and    
     
     
         9 . The kit of  claim 8 , wherein said rearwardly extending portions of said front wall extend parallel to said top and bottom walls of said elongated housing.  
     
     
         10 . The kit of  claim 9 , wherein said inwardly and rearwardly extending portions of said front wall of said elongated housing are reversely curved.
