Title: any tips for re-sticking decals back on?
Post by: firebird4130 on October 01, 2009, 12:54 PM

I've took some fork decals off but wanted to reuse them, some of the sticky has come off is there a glue someone could recommend for putting on em?

Cheers  :daumenhoch:

In the past I've used that double-sided sticky tape that car body shop's use to re-apply car badges after a re-spray.  :daumenhoch:

Once the backing is removed, this stuff is a 'super-thin' film of adhesive - not 'tape' as such.
