I followed the instructions that came with this sticker and it was very painful for me to apply it to my car window. The sticker is between two protective films. Paper. The instructions say to clean the area, stick the sticker on the area, remove one side of the backing paper, use a credit card to press down the sticker and remove the second sheet of backing paper. Well I tried to do everything. but the sticker didn't stay in place even after sticking it on. The paper/sticker has shifted, the sticker has stretched and deformed. Today I ordered three decals for my car and this one was the worst so far.
