Bumper Letters - How to attatch? - dmcscott2002 - 31 Aug 2008

Hey folks,

Any recommendations on glue to use to fix SS letters to the rear bumper?

Cheers!

I used 'tiger seal'

Whatever you use just make sure the surface is clean and dirt / grease free... oh and make sure each 'letter' fits ok first.

Contact adhesive is good, you know the ones where you apply it to both surfaces, wait 10 minutes and then press together.

This iliminates the need to hold or secure the letters in place while the adhesive sets.

But like others have already pointed out the most important thing is to get a really clean surface, use alcohol or lighter fluid
and then a bit of fine sand paper to get a key in the surface.
