Cool guys, when you get them up on whatever vehicles or whatever, post up some photos! I love seeing where they end up.

And as with anything from me... 100% guarantee no matter what - if for some reason it doesn't come out right, let me know and I will give you replacements. I am more concerned that you have a perfect sticker than anything else!

PotatoTM · « **Reply #75 on:** Thu, 20 April 2017, 16:54:13 »

I got mine today!

I decided to stick one on my laptop, but I was having trouble removing the top layer as it was peeling off with it (probably because it rained today and so they were a bit damp)
But luckily I had better luck with the second one and it came out great!

Cool! Yeah i was having some issues with the porous plastic on my case too. I might try again but hit it with the hair dryer and then press it in really well and then after a while try pulling the transfer tape off. I dunno. I have better luck with the cheaper masking tape than the high quality nylon tape.
Were you able to save the first sticker? let me know if you need a replacement.

Got mine today! Now I need a surface!

moonmaster · « **Reply #88 on:** Sat, 22 April 2017, 19:33:28 »

Ok, so I got my stickers and I feel like an idiot. How do these work? I put them on my desired surface, peeled slowly, and just a few letters stayed. I tried pressing hard, and all sorts of stuff. Is there a guide somewhere? 😵

With die cut decals you peel the top layer off (clear). The letters should come up with it. Find place of application...make sure its a surface that will actually allow stickers and is clean, then press sticker onto surface and press against the letters and they should stick on. Once you have pressed all the letters, I recommend running a credit card over them to push out any air bubbles if you have any. Afterwards, gently peel off the clear top layer and the letters should stay in place

OfTheWild · « **Reply #90 on:** Sun, 23 April 2017, 11:53:20 »

^ and to add to that, you need to apply them to a surface that they can adhere to. I was having issues with the transfer tape holding the vinyl better than the vinyl was holding my porous plastic PC case... but it worked fine on the smooth plastic.

If you screw something up let me know and I'd be glad to send replacements.

I HIGHLY recommend you use these for glass... like a car window or a smooth painted surface.

Sticker wasn't coming up so I had to press it into the transfer paper and then roll the backing paper off at an aggressive angle...

Rolling the transfer tape off after using alcohol to clean the aluminum laptop...

Fin. Great idea, lundmore!
