Help please, looking for political car magnets
My husband won't allow me to stick anything to his mercedes/mistress but said if I found magnets I could plaster the car. Can't find them ANYWHERE. Has anyone got any links to vendors where I can find these????????

3. I got one and it was on ebay.
I can't seem to find the place right now. But in Lowes or Home Depot they sell magnetic sheets for covering vents. That can be cut and the bumper sticker put on that.

4. See post 1
You buy a bumper sticker and put on magnetic tape. It's fairly cheap at crafts stores.

I remove and change my bumper stickers fairly often. I haven't had a problem but I'm all for compromise. ;-)

6. Magnetic sheets
are available at most craft stores and office supply stores. Apply the desired bumper stickers to the sheet and trim to size.

I bought mine at Jo Ann Fabrics, but have also seen them at Staples and Office Max.

Use the magnetic sheets in your computer printer and make your own custom stickers.

Imagination is a terrible thing to waste!!!!

7. Stick it on the window...
I just got an expensive new car also and didn't want to stick stuff all over it. FYI, the Kerry stickers are removable anyway, but if yuo stick them on your window, they peel off really easily when you want them to. And if for some reason it DID get really badly stuck on there, just take a little warm water and let it absorb into the sticker a bit, then just rub it off with your finger or use a butter knife. It'll come off, I promise ;)

8. In addition to magnets, you might try car window decals
They go on the inside of the car window and are easy to remove. I found mine on ebay. I'm sure there are many other locations that sell them. I've also printed off my own magnets. I have to spray them with a sealer, though, to keep the ink from running. I like the idea of putting a bumper sticker on top of a magnetic sheet, too. Already waterproof and easily changeable. Have fun! :hi:
