Guys ... I just got the stickers from Jambo and I tried to apply them to my car.

Peeled the sticker away from the Slightly harder Backing, and stuck it to my Window.

I couldn't get the Funky paper off. When I tried to peel the Funky Paper off ... the Sticker Came RIGHT OFF?!?!??!?!

Did I get a Bad Batch?????

Let it sit on the window with the front paper still attached for about 30 minutes, THEN pull the front paper off.

I just got mine today, and after rubbing both stickers for 30 sec each, i peeled it off with no problem at all. You dont have to wait 30 min or anything like that.

The only complaint i have is that i ordered the white ones but instead got the silver ones.

Damn Damn Damn.

I think I got a Bad Batch ... or the Glue is Dried Up.

Cuz they Don't stick ... I left them on for like 1 hour.

Rubbed them like Crazy, even tried a Hair Dryer.

Only like 3 Letters out of the ENTIRE thing sticks.




JAMBO, if U're reading this ... is there any way U can send me another One???

had the same problem a long time ago. But i delt with it

I ruined the first one, got the second one...WITH problems.

I ordered 4 more...and I think I'll try this method. It's recommended from AP-Signworks. Thanks for this Jeff.


1) Remove the backing paper from the decal.

2) Clean the application area thoroughly and make sure it is free of debris. Apply a weak solution of soap and water to the area and carefully place the decal in the desired location. The soap solution applies some movement of the decal before it sticks permanently, so spraying the decal lightly will help placement.

3) Use a credit car or some similar object to push any bubbles toward the outside edges of the decal until it is smooth.

4) Wait for the decal to dry before peeling away the masking material to ensure that it will be permanently attached to the applied surface.

I know you would probably like the white for yoyr white car but the silver looks so much better.
