Work, The curse of the Drinking Classes

As we are taking the Discovery this year I'm contemplating getting some LM Stickers from https://www.stickeredup4lemans.com/, my question is, has anyone got any experiences with applying and removing their stickers?  Is it as easy as they seem to claim!

https://www.stickeredup4lemans.com/collections/lima-mike-two-four/products/lm24-raf is high up the list at the moment.

Any views, good or bad, are highly welcome.

Always used their stuff and yes, its as easy as claimed. Take your time, plan it, have the tools to hand and, certainly if you're going for any larger stickers, have somebody around to help as required.

As for removal, again, take your time. Use a hair dryer or heat gun on low power to gently warm the sticker as your assistant slowly peels it off, the sharper the 'peeling angle' the better. Never suffered any damage and there's not even much, if any, residue once the sticker has gone.

Good quality products which work as you'd hope and expect.

Hello Geoff,

I have used their stickers a number of years in succession now, never with any problems.
A certain amount of dexterity and perseverance is required on application to avoid "bubbles" in the finish, but this is a skill that can be easily mastered.

Removal is fairly straightforward. They peel off by hand without trouble and usually in one piece.

Handy tip would be - try to do application and removal on a warm, dry, sunny day, the vinyl is much more malleable. (Or make sure the stickers are at hot room temperature before application).
Doris's hairdryer helps if all else fails (but don't tell her!).

Baldrick, my Lord! But I can change it to Ploppy if it'll make things easier.
