Stickers came :-)

[WTF]

Hiya ,Sorry back to the colour of the stickers ! Do u do them in fuchsia pink !! ?? :redface:

On the way!!

[dbrewood]

Very silly question, but.....

Do the stickers go on the inside or outside of the glass? I had thouight inside but as the windows are smoked and the photos of the stickers taken here look clear and not as if they are behind smoked glass?

[lfcrule1972]

For the official club stickers these apply to the outside of the windows Daron.

[dbrewood]

Ah ha right. So in that case do they not come off when washing etc? Also concerned about members of the public peeling them off!

[WTF]

Mine have been on for years, no one has ever peeled any of the many designs I have had on. To remove, they would need to spend quite some time picking!

[dbrewood]

Right.. and cleaning is not affected?

[WTF]

Nope

One tip is to warm them slightly, just rub for a bit to get the back a bit stickier, below says hairdryer, but rubbing the actual stickers works for me.

1. Clean surface thoroughly in preparation for Decal.
2. Heat sticker & surface. i.e. with hairdryer
3. Peel Back Backing paper to reveal decal.
4. Place in desired location being aware you cannot re-use after placement.
5. Flatten and rub Backing paper with plastic card. i.e. bank card
6 Pull backing paper away to reveal finished product.

If you put it on e.g. windshield be careful when warming glass... it cracks easily.

I didn't need to heat either of my stickers to apply them, but I defer to the advice from the manufacturers

[dbrewood]

Hmm surely the instructions should be:

1. Clean surface thoroughly in preparation for Decal.
2. Heat sticker & surface. i.e. with hairdryer
3. Peel away backing paper to reveal back sticky side of decal.
4. Place in desired location being aware you cannot re-use after placement.
5. Flatten and rub front protective paper with plastic card. i.e. bank card
6 Pull front protective paper away to reveal finished product.

Hmm now I'm worrying about heating the glass. Mind you in this weather it's probably not needed. Then again I'm going to hold off until after Andy has detailed the car to ensure I get the best out of it!

Clean any traces of wax and other substances before applying it on the surface or the surface might "reject" the glue.
Then after it's there you can and should carefully re-wax the area as well as the sticker itself.

[dbrewood]

That is muchly appreciated. In that case I'll see if Andy is happy to assit in sticker application as part of the detailing process

Andy......... ?

Thats just a guide copied from the supplier.

I've never heated the glass, I did say:

One tip is to warm them slightly, just rub for a bit to get the back a bit stickier, below says hairdryer, but rubbing the actual stickers works for me.

Just clean, warm sticker (helps ease the paper away), stick on, rub on, peel off paper slowly.

I'll do a guide video when I get a chance.

[dbrewood]

Cheers - thanks for that.

Got a bit of time as hopefully Emily is sorting out the issues with my decal order, them will wait for the detailing session.

[lfcrule1972]

The basic guide (without heating as WTF said) works fine honestly, I applied one of mine in mid winter onto a cold window and just rubbed the sticker with a microfibre cloth and it was applied perfectly.
