Glue for side art sticker?
« on: October 26, 2014, 06:19:41 PM »
I'm about to apply a new side art sticker, but that one has been in a storage since a llooooong time, and as you can see in that picture...



...the sticker starts to curve and I'm not sure if there's still enough glue below it.
I would like to use additional glue on these 'curved' edges before applying the sticker. What kind of glue would be the right one?

How did this work out, or haven't you tried it yet?

Well, could you believe it was more easy for me to order something in the US, than visiting local shops!?  :oops:
Yeps... very hard to find free time after my workday... so ... yeah ... I ordered (and got) that one in the US ( :shock: :roll:) ... should test it very soon.  :arrow:

Well I thought I would have such problem, not during the order (got it on ebay.com) but more during the shipping... but it came in less than 8 days without any problem.
