Magnetic Hook Rescue Key Chain from Drain Grill
🔑 Our customer Jeanne shared with us the photo of her keychain dropped thru the grill of a drain. Once again, the photo was important as it allow Titan Magnetics to gauge the size and weight of object to retrieve and also the size of magnet to use as the gap between grill is quite small.
Hence we recommended using dia. 16mm Hook magnet 🧲 with a fishing line to pass thru the gap and get to the key chain metal ring, which from our experience should be ferrous metal that will be attracted to magnet. The dia. 16mm hook magnet which have a maximum pull force of 2kg would have no problem picking up the keychain even with a very small contact point.
Jeanne tied a single piece of hook magnet to the fishing line and secured it with additional sticky tape to ensure the hook magnet doesn’t fall off.
🎣With her skillful aim and steady maneuver, she managed to rescue her keychain from a depth of over a meter deep drain. Great job!
Proof of a successful keychain rescue was in the subsequent photos that she shared with us with the keychain attached to the hook magnet, safe and sound.
Key mission accomplished! 😄👍

Magnetic Painted Wall for Souvenir Magnet Display
Souvenir magnets are commonly displayed on fridge doors, but there are cases where this isn’t feasible, such as glass fridge doors, limited space, or inconvenient locations.
But what if we could showcase our souvenir magnets on our walls? It would be a dream come true!
Our customer, Choy Wai (CW), made this dream a reality and graciously shared the process along with photos!
His initial inquiry with Titan Magnetics was simple: “How many liters of Magnetic Paint are required to cover a 1.5m x 1.5m wall area?”
For regular use of a magnetic painted wall to attach papers, photos, or cards, 1 liter is sufficient to cover approximately 2sqm with 3 coats. However, Choy Wai’s intention was to display souvenir magnets, so we recommended at least 5 coats, which equates to 2 liters of magnetic paint.
He shared with us a photo of a die-cast souvenir “PARIS” magnet with 2 small pieces of strong magnets at the back. We anticipated a challenge, suspecting that the small magnets might not have sufficient contact with the magnetic painted wall.
Choy Wai taped up a section of the wall with masking tape and applied a nice thin coat of magnetic paint. After the first coat dried, CW tested it with a piece of neodymium magnet, and it already attached to the wall.
After the 5th coat of magnetic paint dried to the touch, the “PARIS” die-casted magnet was able to attach to the wall. However, there was still some magnetic paint left, so he proceeded to paint 2 more coats (approximately 7 coats in total) for stronger magnetic receptiveness. Regular white emulsion paint was then applied over the black magnetic painted section to ensure the whole wall was one consistent color.
The final result? A beautifully innocent-looking wall that magically showcases the souvenir magnets along with their magnificent journey and stories.”
Titan Magnetics Notes:
– Not suitable for rough, bumpy, textured, sandstone, rockstone walls.
– Need at least 5 coats (or more) of magnetic paint (instead of 3 coats).
– Some heavy souvenir magnets might not attach to wall.
– Some souvenir magnets might need to add or modify the original magnet at the back.
– Strong magnet with large contact area works better on magnetic painted wall.
– Flat and light weight souvenir magnets higher possiblility to work vs Protruding and heavy types.
If the original back magnets are too weak, one option is simply to attach additional neodymium magnets to the original ones to make it stronger.
If the original back magnets are too small or already dropped out, can also use rubber magnetic tape to stick to flat back souvenir.
If the souvenir is large and flat, can consider using our A4 size magnetic sheet with adhesive cut to the required shape and size.

Neodymium Magnet Handling: Tips for Best Performance and Outcomes
While neodymium magnets offer unparalleled strength and versatility, it’s important to handle them with care to ensure both safety and optimal performance. Here are some tips for safe and effective handling of neodymium magnets:
Magnet Tips – Avoid Impact: Neodymium magnets are brittle and can chip or break upon impact, especially when 2 or more pieces of neodymium magnets accidentally “jumps” together with great impact resulting in breakage on collision. Handle them with care to prevent damage and ensure longevity.
Adhesive Tips – Clean Flat Surfaces: For optimal and long lasting adhesive results, ensure surfaces are clean, flat and solid before peeling and sticking on the adhesive side. If situation permits, it is always good to secure with additonal schotts tape over the magnet to reinforce the built in adhesive as neodymium magnet pull force are really great, it may cause the adhesive to eventually giveway. Reinforcing with a layer of tape over the neodymium magnet also lessen the possiblities of magnet breakage due to impact as the tape reduces some direct impact from the magnet during attraction/closure.
Apply Pressure and Allow Time for Adhesive Bonding – 3M Adhesive are pressure sensitive, meaning firmly pressing on the whole magnet surface will allow the adhesive to get good full contact bond with surface. Quality of bond will achieve it’s full potential after appx 48 hours thanks to micro bonding at the chemical level. Hence allow time for adhesive to achieve complete bonding by minimizing load or pulling action during the initial 48 hours period.
Some plastic surface are not adhesive friendly regardless of the qualities of adhesive bonding due to the plastic’s chemical composition. In those cases, we recommend mechanical bonding by using our screw friendly countersunk neodymium magnets.
– Keep Away from Electronics: Neodymium magnets can interfere with electronic devices and magnetic storage media such as credit cards, hard drives, and pacemakers. Keep magnets away from these items to avoid potential damage or malfunction.
– Use Caution Around Metal Objects: Neodymium magnets are extremely strong and can attract to metal objects with significant force. Exercise caution when handling magnets near metal surfaces to prevent pinching or trapping fingers.
– Store Properly: When not in use, store neodymium magnets in a safe and secure location away from children and pets. Avoid storing magnets near electronic devices or other sensitive equipment to prevent accidental damage.
By following these simple guidelines, you can ensure safe and effective performance of neodymium magnets in your everyday applications.
Safety Precautions When Using Neodymium Magnets
1. Keep Away from Children and Pets: Neodymium magnets are small and can pose a choking hazard if swallowed. Keep magnets out of reach of children and pets to prevent accidental ingestion.
2. Avoid Pinching: Neodymium magnets are extremely strong and can cause painful pinching if fingers or skin become caught between magnets or between a magnet and a metal surface. Exercise caution when handling magnets to avoid injury.
4. Be Mindful of Magnetic Fields: Neodymium magnets produce strong magnetic fields that can affect nearby objects and electronic devices. Avoid placing magnets near sensitive equipment or items that may be affected by magnetic fields.
5. Seek Medical Attention if Ingested: If a neodymium magnet is ingested, seek immediate medical attention. Swallowed magnets can cause serious internal injuries and require prompt medical intervention.
Always prioritize safety first!

Flexible Magnetic Whiteboard on Storeroom Metal Door
WFH, HBL, SHN and LOA…
All these acronym have one thing in common, meaning we do whatever we need to do from the comfort of our home, constraint by space. So how can magnets help in making this period at home bearable, productive and possibly even more fun?
By making use of your vertical space at home!
Our customer Liana Siau at Dawson shared a photo of how she use 2pcs of Flexible Magnetic Whiteboard (Magnetic Back) to convert the metal storeroom door into a functional writing space!
As she has young ones at home, her initial concern was “will the whiteboard drop and is it dangerous?” Our experience is that flexible magnetic whiteboard is safer and less likely to drop compared to a regular wooden or solid based whiteboard as it is just 0.5mm thin, less likely to get dragged or hit accidentally from sideways. And even if it drop, the soft material will not cause injury or ugly damage to the floor. And the fact that you can roll it up and store it away temporarily if needed, without having to clean up any residual glue or leave traces just makes it the ideal choice.
Due to the door handle in the middle, she choose to use 2 pieces, one for top and another for bottom of the door. Good choice as that means the top is for Mommy and bottom is good for scribbles, and it is also easier to attach and detach 2 small pieces instead of one large piece.

Flexible Magnetic whiteboard (Magnetic Back) in roll
Flexible Magnetic whiteboard (Magnetic Back) in A3 Size
Titan Magnetics notes:
– Flexible magnetic whiteboard (magnetic back) can attach to metal surfaces, magnetic painted wall or ferrous surfaces. (Aluminum, stainless steel, copper, brass are not ferrous material and will not be able to attach magnetically)
– Flexible magnetic whiteboard front surface by itself can attach neodymium magnets (Neodymium magnets are strong magnet) but most common weak magnets (black color ferrite or ceramic magnets are common weak magnets) will usually slide off the surface if the magnetic whiteboard is not attached to a metal surface. Once the whiteboard is attached to a metal surface like the above photo, common magnet should be able to attach to the front without sliding off as the metal surface allows the weaker magnets more ferrous grip.
CNY Decoration Tips #1- Large Pin Magnets for Glass
Besides using sticky tape to put up seasonal decoration, we choose to see what can be achieved with magnets, which is easier, reusable and leave no residual when taken down.
On some thin 3mm-5mm glass panels or door our facing pair large pin magnets can attached to each other across the thin glass and still have some pulling force to hang light weight decoration, like this beautiful and auspicious pineapple shape weighing appx. 70grams : )
Just a note that this works in interior with little wind and no rain.
Some material will absorb liquid and gets heavier.
Pro and Cons:
Easy to put up, adjustment is literally shifting the magnet along with deco around the glass for that visually optimal spot!
Removal is as easy leaving no residual and also it is reusable!
Downside is that the object cannot be too heavy, best if it is indoor and if it is public area, passer by might just make off with the deco along with magnets ; )
Simple example of how magnets can greatly help in your festive season decoration and the benefits is even more apparent during take down, which is clean, fast and reusable.
Magnets used: Large Pin Magnets in white, also available in Red Pin Magnets and Black Pin Magnets
Magnetic Paint In Learning Center
Information are growing, discoveries are happening every second and trends are constantly changing. So are the bulletins, posters and photos that adorn our walls, no reason to be just a static display in a dynamic world. Our science guru customer Winston Chan found the perfect science based solution for his Science Solutions Learning Center located at East Coast Road. By using magnets and painting potion of the walls in the classroom with Titan Magnetics – Magnetive™ Paint, he is able to display the latest up to date posters and information magnetically, without drilling any holes, using sticky adhesive or Velcro tape. One of the biggest concern was having to clean up the sticky residue of adhesive or patching up unsightly holes when posters or photos are removed.
The magnetic wall also opens up possibilities like attaching a flexible magnetic whiteboard (magnetic back) on demand, shifting the position of photos and posters at will, attaching light weight objects like remote controls and even battery operated wall lights. The posters were attached using 20mm width Flexible Magnetic Tape with 3M adhesive.
The original wall is beige while the black middle section is the magnetic painted surface. The photos demonstrated some good tips for having a magnetic wall as follows:
– You can leave the black magnetic paint as it is if it blends well visually with your interior OR, paint over the magnetic painted area (black) with any colour of regular top coat paint you prefer, it works both ways. Magnetic field of most good quality magnet will work thru the layer of regular paint.
– Depending on your usage, most cases you do not need to paint the whole wall, just the section that you will use most often. In this case, the bottom and top of wall are not painted for reasons like out of reach, and too low to be of practical use.
(Exception cases for painting full height could be the wall is really small, or you are using full height magnetic wall decorations)
Thank you Mr Winston Chan of for sharing these photos with Titan Magnetics

Iron Rubber Sheet for Fridge and Souvenir Magnets Display
Traveled the world and amassed an interesting cache of souvenir magnets with no where to display?
Our friendly customer Rose has found the perfect spot and solution to showcase her collection of souvenir magnets… on her glass door!
She used Titan Magnetics Iron Rubber Sheet with Adhesive Back (Just peel and paste) on her glass door and it was able to hold most of her fridge magnets.
Those heavier souvenirs or the ones with weaker ‘black’ magnets that were not able to attach, we recommend to just add a piece of Dia. 18x2mm neodymium magnets to the back of the ‘black’ magnet to increase the magnetic strength.
Photo credits: Thank you Rose! for sharing with us your photos and fridge magnets collection. 🙂
Titan Magnetics note:
– Although our Flexible Magnetic Whiteboard can serve the same purpose, heavier items may tend to slide down on the whiteboard smooth surface due to lack of friction. Hence, for the display of fridge or souvenir magnets, our iron rubber sheet is the perfect solution.
– Always install the adhesive back on a smooth, hard and clean surface, apply pressure on the full surface to ensure maximum adhesive contact.
– Best result, leave the adhesive for at least 48hrs to allow curing of adhesive before attaching any magnets. Do consider the total weight of your magnets and if it is too heavy, advisable to spread the magnets over a larger surface area.
– Tip: Flexible Iron Rubber sheet can be cut to different shapes and sizes with a heavy duty pen knife or scissors. This opens up possibilities for small, under utilized spaces like inside of cabinet doors where you can hide the magnets internally to protect from dust and little fingers.
Pot Neodymium Magnet for Holding Motorcycle Tank Bag
Motorcycle Tank Bags, nifty bag with magnetic flaps designed to attach on to a motorcycle tank. Neat and fast way to secure the bag without any straps, works fine when the bag is empty or lightly loaded. Pack in more stuff and most riders realized that the bags original magnets aren’t as strong and secure as they hope it would be, especially after riding some distance, it began to slip… the situation gets worst on a raining day.
That is when Kirol first came across Titan Magnetics Dia.30mm Steel Cladded Office Magnet and decided to give it a try. He totally removed the 4 original magnets that came with the tank bag and inserted 4pcs of Dia. 30mm steel cladded magnets. He felt the improved grip of the dia. 30mm steel cladded magnets but wanted to see if there are other alternatives as his was a large sized tank bag.
We recommended our Dia. 32mm Pot Magnets that also had a steel capping so that the magnetic pull force is only strong on the exposed side. The steel capping serves 3 purposes, one – not only does it reduces the magnetic field from damaging things that are sensitive to magnetic field like cash card, credit cards with magnetic strips, two – it also increases the magnetic strength on the exposed side attached to the tank and three – it greatly protects the brittle neodymium magnet from breakages.
After putting in the Dia. 32mm pot magnets, Kirol was certain that these magnets are up to the task of holding the heavy bag securely in place! The strength was noticeably stronger than the dia. 30mm steel cladded magnets and definitely way stronger than the original magnets that came with the tank bag.
Thank you Kirol for sharing with us this solution : )
Safe Riding!

Acrylic Cladding for Aquarium Using QuikDisc Magnets with 3M Adhesive
Covering up your aquarium tubing, messy cables, pumps and clutters can really transform it into a sleek and beautiful feature that is more relaxing and aesthetically pleasing.
Our customer Chee Boon came up with this idea of using QuikDisc Neodymium Magnets with 3M Adhesive to attach acrylic panels on to the facade of his aquarium metal structure.
As the aquarium setup needs maintenance periodically, able to access the filters and pumps easily is very important. Being able to fully detach the acrylic cladding makes future maintenance, decoration work and tweaking much more convenient. Furthermore, not a single hole were drilled on the metal structure and no additional tools are needed to attach or detach the acrylic panels. This cladding method not only looks good with no ugly screws along the edges, it is also easy to implement and practical. Thanks to QuikDisc Magnets, the structural integrity of the metal frame were also not compromised.
The completed aquarium setup with acrylic cladding attached using QuikDisc Magnets.
Below: Dia. 10x1mm QuikDisc Magnets were attached to the perimeter of each acrylic panel and left to cure for over 24 hours.
This allows the 3M adhesive to achieve micro-bonding to the acrylic surface.
Closed up view of QuikDisc Magnets on 3mm thick acrylic panel. The thickness of QuikDisc Magnet is just 1mm, hence it does not make the acrylic cladding appearing bulged out
Once again, thank you Chee Boon for sharing with us your photos, ideas and creation! 🙂
