Anyone here that runs a window banner on the top part of the windshield? Is there a certain way to apply it so the edges are perfect or will there always be ugly edges because it is hand cut? What would be the best way to apply it? Thanks.



I'm talking about the top banner in this picture.

Or even a third to stand in the middle and make sure it's good.. I dunno.. but doing it yourself is probably not gonna be fun..

 

I didn't ask about the placement. That's fine, I'm concerned with the CUTS along the corners and edges of the banner that need to be made to fit different window sizes. I called a few tint shops and they said it's unavoidable that you're going to see some cuts on the edges.

 

take it to any sticker shop they can put it on for you.

 

use soapy water, you can lay the sticker down and move it in the place you want it. then press the water out from under it and it will stick to the window

^^ he knows what hes talking about.

 

I think you all are missing the question...

He's not asking how to apply it, he's asking if there's a better way to CUT it so the edges are cleaner looking...

 

When I've seen sticker shops do it, they us a razor blade, after it's been centered, and they cut it right along the line where the window meets the rubber molding. Since most of the Honda window moldings over lap, or have a gap between them and the window, it's usually hidden, and can't be seen.

 

Hmmm... you know how when you cut steel line, you tape it up... maybe putting some tape up to the edges will reduce some sort of overcutting etc...

But that means you would have to lay the tape out PERFECT...

 

the right way <TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by rodrez &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">When I've seen sticker shops do it, they us a razor blade, after it's been centered, and they cut it right along the line where the window meets the rubber molding.
