You have to be careful unpeeling them. Sometimes the decal will lift. Just reverse a tad, and push it back down to the paper, and try again. Easier to use an acute angle when unpeelimg.

There was another thread recently about putting smileys on cars. Can anyone remember who it was?
I started this one:

Good advice from The Heretic.

OP. didn't you start a thread about your 16yo "hussy daughter" and posted a pic of her?

If so, you're either an idiot or a troll.


If not, you idiot!

I had difficulty sticking mine on as the individual bits kept lifting whilst others stayed where they were.

I found pressing on the non lifting parts usually gets them to catch and with a bit of patience you should have all the individual bits on the correct sticky bit ready to slap on the car.

The sticker has probably been sat in a drawer for weeks.

When you get it rub your thumb over the application tape where the vinyl is and it should stick straight back to it and peel off no problem. If it doesn't then the vinyl is probably cut too deep and into the backing paper. Can I ask what vinyl is used for the PH stickers?

Just google a sticker maker and get them made up > cost is next to nothing.

Eh?
Just google a local signwriter or the like and get your own stickers made up > they just print them out on a vinyl machine and the cost is very little > get 20 and allow for stuff ups.

Getting a PH Smiley made up elsewhere, not sure on the legality of using the design you might not have permission to use?

Who would know and if I remember correctly there is no copyright on it.

I'd rather buy from PH, as i'd imagine PH will get a cut, PH keep's me sane, (sort of), helps me out with all manner of st i get myself into aswell as amusing me no end, so a few quid here & there i'm happy to pay.
Yes, i know i'm a 'tard, i have 0 luck with PH stickers, over the years i've ordered many & none of them have ever ended up on a vehicle as i usually end up ordering ones that're too big for the space or i drop them or stick them to myself.
Now i sound like an amateur Emsman!

Of course we protect it! In fact, every month I spend time emailing those who sell our logo on eBay etc asking them to remove them from sale. We'd rather not have all and sundry touting our brand.

Our vinyl stickers have been made by the same company for a while now, bar a short period he's pretty much made them since day one. Always happy to look at custom orders or to look at quality issues if we need to smile
