Review on Reflective American Stickers Tactical Military by Tim Hollins

Revainrating 1 out of 5

DIFFICULT TO APPLY - DEFORMS INSTANTLY - DOESN'T MOVE - OTHERWISE LOOKS GREAT

Otherwise these stickers look great on the back of the label. Don't be fooled by the description, "3M Reflective Vinyl is the highest quality vinyl in the world." That may be true, but the substrate used is extremely thin, stretches almost instantly, and is very difficult to apply without deforming. Glad you have two. I was able to get a tolerable but not pleasant application by just peeling off the top corner, trying to position the flag so it was absolutely horizontal and in the spot I wanted, and then peeking behind the back while I was doing it at the same time tried to control the position and wipe the flag on the surface - to eliminate or reduce the possibility of bubbles. Note: Once the sticky backing touches the surface you are locked in place, otherwise the flag will stretch and permanently deform when you take it off. Good adhesion is a plus, but the backing (where the flag is printed) needs to be a lot thicker to have any hope of repositioning. Like I said looks great before application and not bad after messing up the first flag and sort of settling in but NOT an acceptable product. I recommend the installation guide in the envelope and it is clearly visible on the site before purchasing. You look good but need a warning sign. Made in China.
