Never tell a man to move the TV away from the wall, it doesn’t work that way.

I’ve learned that those thick black washers come in handy when you’re assembling the mount. It adds a meaningful amount of clearance when installing/hanging a TV. I’m uncertain if all mounts come with them but they should.

Mine only came with thin white washers: what do I do?

I don’t know if the plastic in the white washers are the same as the black ones so it might not provide the same sheer rating.

I would hate for the TV to buckle or compromise the wall.

Assuming it’s made of the same materials it’s gonna take a couple thin whites to stack up to a thick black. namean?

(This was a joke and thanks for that last line 🙂)
