First off, You need to clean every trace of grease and grim off of the surface your going to stick it too. I would also think it needs to be cool to the touch. The only reason I can think of for them not sticking good is that it might not be clean enough.

Thanks for the tips I have not any problems applying to surface but more of a problem after a while and with the high eng. heat then the decal starts to get wrinkles through it? THANK-YOU. :auto: :auto:

Cheap plastic (not heat resistant) used to print engine decals. :eek:

Seems to me that the decals on the air filter are paper and the others are plastic. This could be the reason for the wrinkling. I don't know, just a guess.
