well i know its not from me but i done my fiesta, and i will only suggest plently of soapy water and make sure your windows are clean also it will probly benifit you to use a heat gun after you have applied the tin then use a credit card to squeeze the bubbles to the edges, if you dont get what i mean you can go on you tube and there is step by step video guides how to so it mate.

It is real pain - i vinyled mine. I genned up via good old youtube - and tried the wet method. The results looked really good see my previous post - budget van top, until the bad weather came and the vinyl bubbled :angry: so i peeled it off and went back to my sign writers for more vinyl - they suggested the wet method was the right one, so i brought some more vinyl and tried the dry method - it bubbled again!!!!! :angry: so at the moment im back no vinyl and am planning on getting the vinyl done again in the new year once the temps back top by the signwriters. Adamski and others have done theres and had the same smart effect i had when it first went on. Ive come to the conclusion that i either must be crap or its the weather - the latter is my choice :whistle:

Hi Guys, afraid I"ve gotta confess that mine were already done when I bought the car !!!

Sorry it's taken a while to reply but we had to have our little Westie (Scruffy)put to sleep on Friday and I haven't been on here. Had him for 14 years so as you can imagine I'm gutted :-(
