"By the way ... if one wants one can get magnetic stuff to stick the stickers on your car. then easily taken off afterwards.
The stuff costs about R100 /m2. Put your name down if you would be interested, and if we can get 13 people, we can just get a roll at R80/m2."

One would also like to have some magnetic stuff for one to use. One really hates it when one has to stick all manner of stuff on one's paint work!

You can count me in as well.

Are you guys using it to hide existing stickers, or protect your paintwork from the decals we have to display on the day.

My only metal bits are the doors and bonnet, so everything else will have to stuck on anyway.

Cool Andre...

Dave ... Hillbilly will look good with Fundi stickers on !!
Can always just stick the corners of the stickers to your Hillbilly too..
