        Not too bad at all. What exactly is the procedure?

          Stuck the sticker (with backing paper still on) to the car with masking tape, measured up so both stickers are in the same place then took one side of the masking tape off, carefully peeled the backing paper up to the remaining masking tape then cut backing paper off, wiped car with microfiber cloth then used a rubber squeegee type thing to apply the decal going careful so not to get air bubbles (well not to many) then once done do the other side of the decal. PM me if you want more info Daron

              You may want to sit down to hear this...

              Most stickers tend to have the same procedure when it comes to applying them...

                Somehow I imagined that these would be somewhat more substantial - or lacquered over to seal them.

                My club stickers are peeling already after 6 months.

                  I'm not sure how you've managed that.

                  With regards to the stickers above they are literally a giant sticker. You don't need to spray it to seal it.. If I have you on facebook, take a look at at the application of the vinyl I had on my car to see the process.

                  I can only imagine you've not cleaned the surface you were applying the sticker to sufficiently enough. That or you haven't applied them correctly/powerwashed directly, etc...

                  Speak with Den about arranging a replacement.

                    Possibly caught it with a power wash. Definitely properly cleaned as they were actually fitted by Andy just after he'd finished detailing the car.

                      My club sticker has peeled a little at the edges, not sure if it was one of the latest batches or not now.... I do have a spare so at some point I will clean the window again and then reapply

                        That's the only problem with having stickers on... you can't be lazy and use a power washer or let the 'polish' clean it for you. A good ol' elbow grease is needed!
