Your mistake was going to a car wash. They will withstand a normal hand washing but not a car wash.

Ah misread it hehe

Was the area clean when you applied it and was there any bubbles in it?

Did you peel the backing off the sticker? prit-stik isnt very water-proof.

Depends on what you tried to stick it to. PH have developed an adaptive adhesive that will only firmly adhere to vehicles worthy of a PH sticker. You didn't try and attatch it to a french diesel did you? biggrin
