I guess the OP's heart was in the right place but you did come on here slagging off a company and basically, telling everyone else to avoid using them for stickers because........well,.....they stick!

Have to expect a little slating for that fella.

Some good cutting compound should sort that.

Not sure about that, looks like the laquer's peeled right off. It probably had a smart repair in that area before he bought it to tidy it up for sale.

Obviously the boot has had a crappy paint job at some point and whoever did it let the paint dry fully before applying the lacquer thus the lack of bond, that tied with the fact you never heated up the sticker to remove, that's why it's done that.

Ditto. I've purchased decals off these guys to replace standard ones and they were fine, good quality and looked as good as the original.

Put sticker back on and get another to cover the rust, job jobbed.

Or, just get a replacement bootlid, it looks to be in need of one.

It looks like the transfer sheet has took the paint with it when he's tried to whip it off. This sheet is normally quite sticky but you don't press it on to the car, I think you just press down on the lettering as that's the part you want to stick, not the transfer sheet.
Oh well, maybe just leave the car as it is, looks quite unique

Stop it, this is just hilarious! In time even the op will see the funny side. Even my twelve year old was able to work out that the lettering needed pressing not the whole sheet. I did one side he did the other. The transfer sheet is very sticky so no surprise at what happened to the op.

I live in a soft water area, some live in a hard water area, you my friend obviously live in a sticky water part of the country

I feel a little sorry for the OP as he's come a little unstuck on this thread
