Frequently Asked Questions
Do they come off in a car wash?
No. If put on as instructed they should stay on as long as the car is running. They will fade, usually in 7-10 years, you'll notice a change.
Do you do wholesale?
Sorry. We make everything by hand, so i can't do wholesale, as I can't physically make enough stickers.
Do they damage the car paint when they come off with a hairdryer?
No. We've been taking them on and off our car for years and the paint is totally unaffected. We have noticed that if you put them on black plastic areas (not bumpers) it can leave a slight impression.
We have a video in 'Hints Tips and video tape' for you to see how it is done.
Are you really Hippies?
Not sure what a Hippy really is. I'd love more time off to contemplate this.
Are they only for cars?
Not at all. Any hard surface will do. Even some flexible surfaces (like PVC) can be coated. The main one that can't is that plastic wovan fabric material.
We've just put a load on our daughters bedroom wall and its great.
What happens if you get our order wrong?
Just drop us a line and we'll correct it no worries.
What if I don't like the colours I picked?
Give us a call first. You can send them back to us undamaged (in original packaging with correct postage) but it is up to us if we ask for an additional cost from you. We do not buy-in or hold stock as we only make to order by hand so on large orders its a big request. So to keep cost down for all we may ask for our time to be covered if you are being particuarly fussy.
You can always ask for us to send swatches of colour.
Do you do multi-coloured vinyl?
No sorry. Just single colour sheets. I would love to, but the manufacturers haven't made any yet.
How long does postage take?
If we get busy (summer months) it may take a few days to process. At other times we usually find for UK orders you'll get it in 3 days of ordering. Airmail is 7-10 working days. Remember, if its an offline order, the cheque can take a few days to get to us then it can take 2-3 days for us to cut & post.

Some of the vinyl is peeling away at the edges.
Any vinyl that has been applied to a plastic coated surface may have this problem. The vinyl is designed to go on metal surfaces, so plastic is always a bit of a gamble.
Some of the vinyl has come off.
When you apply vinyl with soapy water, it is really easy to forget which side is the sticky side, because as soon as it is wet, both sides feel the same. Therefore, if you get it wrong and put the vinyl on with the non-sticky surface against the car, then it will come off once dry.
Please be extra careful with the flower centers and vines, these are the trickiest.
