Last /osg/ was the first good one in a while. Lets keep that momentum going
>>
No

Let's start with a question from the OP himself:

How can I re-use old stickers that have already been in use? I'm in the process of selling one of my cars. There are a few nice stickers on the side window I'd love to re-use some day.
So

I hate removal but I have long nails. I find a triangle part (if it has any) and start picking at it. Good stickers come off with some strength. I usually cleanse the area with alcohol afterwards. I usually just slap them on a fridge, work out bench or whatever and they stick 98% of the time.

>>28146947
If the sticker is in good condition:
>Soak a paper towel or rag in isopropyl
>slap over sticker
>Cover that with plastic and tape
>Come back next day and sticker slides off

You could also use goof-off but I don't know how the sticker would handle it.

>>28148035
He specifically says to reuse the stickers, not to destroy them
>>
>>28146947
Best method is to use a heat gun, but you have to be extremely careful. Enough heat to loosen the adhesive and it'll come right off, but not too much heat because it will warp/deform/burn. You can't really reuse them but you can put them on papers in a binder for memories.

Bumping this question because I have a fairly large sticker I want to partly remove and reapply to get rid of some nasty air bubbles. The razor poke and smooth didn't work, so at this point I think its just a crease in the sticker itself.

>What is this thread for?
A thread to discuss, post, create, and review anything related to automotive decals and stickers, as well as other general aesthetic modifications (wraps, license plate frames, etc).
>>
>>28150097
Wow, thank you. That was nice of you to do that.
>>
>>28146947
You need
>Time and patience
>Hair dryer
>Razor blade or ceramic hob scraper
>Wax paper or any other non-sticky stuff

You want to set your dryer to high heat but low air volume. Stay at least 10 inches away from the sticker so to not overheat it which will cause warping. Don't use a heat gun it's way too hot.
Take your sweet time you want both sticker and glue to get thoroughly warm and soft.
After a couple of minutes try peeling a corner with the blade. Make sure to keep it at a rather steep angle so you dont cut into the sticker or push the blade between sticker and glue.
Try working along the long edges first. If you notice that you need more force then stop and heat that bitch up again.
Dont pull on the sticker. Since it's warm and soft you will warp it that way.
When you got the entire sticker removed put it on your wax paper immediately. Make sure it's smooth without wrinkles. Then put it on a hard, smooth surface and put something hard, heavy and smooth on top of it - books are great for that. Within a bunch of minutes the sticker will cool down again and can be re-used like a new one.
So patience and ellbow grease. Since your stickers are on glass they are on the easiest surface possible. Just don't stress anything. The slower you work the lower the risks.

Push to start isn't shipping internationally anymore because of "wacky issues and fees". Why is it that some vendors have so many issues dealing with international and others have no problems at all? Speaking of American vendors only.
>>
>>28150768
usually when you ship with [insert local post] to another country and either local post isn't the best (i.e. doesn't offer tracking with that embedded USPS number or doesn't automate ETD), shit gets lost real easy. some countries have hilariously strict customs and will hold shit, but never contact the consignee, expecting them to just know it's being imported at that moment

there's also the fact that untracked anything is inherently risky, and, anecdotally, outside of people getting slapped with clearance/customs delays on expensive Overnight AM courier shit, international "free" or stamped mail customers seem to bitch the most often about missing shit or delays

t. former logistics coordinator
>>
>>28150768
i just put the stamps on the envelope
>>
>>28150792
So it could be based on their local post-office being worse, or that they get a lot of orders from 3rd world cunts? It's just strange to me that so many small vendors have no issues yet some seem too retarded to work it out. Surely they would make more income by just yknow, doing this >>28150798 and ignoring anyone complaining.
>>
>>28150768
international has 2 options
~$2 for an envelope that cant fit most merch and has no tracking
or ~$20+ for a small package/envelope with tracking
>>
>>28150768
also if you're a good boy and actually register as a company and don't just dodge taxes it becomes very difficult to send without foreigners getting taxed out the fucking ass and that cuts off a lot of buyers
>>
>>28150880
>and ignoring anyone complaining.
i just send out another envelope with stamps on it if the first one dosent make it. i havnt had too much trouble with international other than canada but thats because the canada post sucks
>>
>>28150977
>because the canada post sucks
I've had maybe two untracked items get lost by canada post. I've had just as many lost by UPS, and I'll let you guess which I use more often, and by a wide margin. then again, I have a 13 year old VW that has never had an electrical gremlin, so maybe I'm just all full of luck

Okay update, I had to dry the area around Gondola off because it rained last night. The transfer tape came off without issue and I was able to reattach the party hat without any loss of adhesion which was my main concern. The only problem now is Gondola's right foot isn't sticking as well anymore. Should I use a micro drop of super glue when things dry off a bit?
>>
>>28155388
I wouldnt use glue on car paint, that said its a tacoma so the section under the glue will be the only part of the "truck" to not rot out in 5 years

So how does one go about upgrading the car's head unit/stereo? Car currently has a chinese android radio, would like something with similar capabilities without going too far price-wise
>>
>>28166255
Wrong thread for this, but take the chink headunit out and see how it was wired. If the previous owner was mexican, the factory harness got chopped and wired straight into, which will suck because youll either have to get a factory pigtail and wire that in, or wire your new headunit straight to that. If the previous owner wasnt mexican then it will have been wired in with something like pic rel. Its an adapter for aftermarket to oem wiring, and every aftermarket headunit ive seen uses the same colors for wire use, so you can just blindly cut and wire that together.
As for headunit choice, idk I usually just buy some used shit on craigslist for $40 that has usb capability and call it a day
>>
>>28166281
Thanks for the tip anon, as far as I can tell the previous owner spliced the wires and joined them together. I feel like it would be dumb to pour 1 grand on a known brand head unit to get a shitty 720p screen so I guess my choices for upgrade are limited to other chink headunits. Is there a thread or board where people discuss these?
>>
>>28165252
>Locked behind a password
I've seen this on a few sites. Does it mean they're down for maintenance and only site employees can get in or do you get in with an exclusive promo code or something?

I'll ask if they're okay with me adding them to the site!

>>28166430

This happens when the site owner is working on updates. They might want to preview how it will appear to a client, so they use a special password for access. It's just part of routine maintenance.

That means that the site is temporarily closed or under updates

>I feel like it would be dumb to pour 1 grand on a known brand head unit to get a shitty 720p
I have heard good things about pioneer and kenwoods for 200-300 dollars, but I wouldnt know personally. I run the 2010s style ugly as hell headunits with a flash drive or sd card for storing all my music in folders, and using the headunit like an mp3 player. I hate needing my phone for anything so its nice.
>Is there a thread or board where people discuss these?

>>28166453
I'd recommend getting patches or stickers from the /k/ vendors for this purpose. I buy a lot of patches from them (for my car so this is now relevant itt) and they sometimes have stickers.
>>
>>28150768
Speaking for myself I offer tracked and un-tracked. If the customer gets un-tracked and it never arrives I send the replacement tracked and eat the difference. Better to give a good experience rather than keep the customer guessing and potentially pissing them off. Money is gay just make sure people get what they want.
