uh....... be careful? I dunno... sometimes the transfer tape doesn't adhere to the stickers quite right. my advice is to spray the bottom of the sticker with soapy water as you peel it.

umm then the sticky part would be all wet and it wouldnt stick to the surface?? just do it slowly and it should be fine

Someone (who owns a honduh) needs to do a write up on how to install the stickers. Otherwise you can just ask your local ricers, I'm sure they know.

Not quite... in fact, when you install any sort of vinyl decals or stickers or whatnot, you should spray the area to be stickered with soapy water. I would use 3 drops of dishsoap per standard sprayer bottle of H2O. the solution will lubricate the surface, allowing adjustments in position, and will keep the sticker from tacking down irreversibly. after the sticker is positioned, use a squeegee, hard piece of plastic, or even your hand wrapped in a towel to press firmly and work the water out from under the decal. Let it sit in the sun for a day and it's permanento! And one word of advice is to be sure the surface to be applied to is not cold. the adhesive won't stick so well to cold. And make sure that you have all the water out before you try to remove the transfer tape, or the letters *could* come up individually.

Yea those stickers seemd to want to stick to the backing more then the applicator, take a credit card and press the applicator to the letters, if you can't get them to work shoot me a PM and I will get some more out to you from the next round of stickers we have coming in. Quite a few people had issues with them and I dunno why.
