Default Applying boot badges

Hey all,

Those of you that have "type UK" cars know that the "type UK" badge has crap glue and comes off.

These are £15 a pop, and ive just got another new one.

Is there anythin i can do when putting it on to help it stay on?

cheers

Clean the surface really well, so you get a better bond

Remove the glue and go to Halfords for some 'Trim Tape' this stuff is great for holding number plates on so should have no problems with badges
