Title: Badge adhesive
Post by: Big_Al on 01 April 2013, 17:16:01
Hi guys
            looking for some advice on replacing/ re sticking  the "MV6 " letters on the passenger door after they have been removed

to spray the door.

I presume new ones are unobtainable so will have to replace the originals .

What is the general method of re sticking these.?   superglue ?  double sided tape?

Has anyone been there and done this & they are still in place  a few months later ?

Any advice greatfully accepted  :y

Nothing quite like a sticky bogie eh albs ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

As suggested by kevinp58  . . the 3m   proper badge tape seems to be a more likely way to do it  :y :y
