LOOK AT WHAT I FOUND! You can print your own window DECALS!
I was at Staples picking up some office supplies and just happened upon THIS:

Hammermill Clear Window Decals

Attaches to glass doors, mirrors, windows and more!

Print your own decal designs on inkjet printer

Repositionable; leaves no residue

Adheres to most indoor smooth surfaces (INSIDE CAR WINDOW!!!!!)

Easily cut into any size or shape

It comes in a pack of 10 sheets 8 1/2 x 11 and are around $11.00.

You can make a BUNCH of decals for your car with 10 sheets of this stuff.


I think Avery also makes these, but I don't know how many sheets or the price of them. Aren't these cool for printing anti-Bush decals for the car??? I can take off all my stickers (I hope) and replace them with decals. PLUS, these can EASILY be changed, unlike a bumper sticker.

5. I don't know. I always look for inkjet printer things
because that's what I own. You could maybe do a Google search and see if there is such a thing?

8. AWESOME--Thanks!!!
For bumper stickers I've been happy with www.makestickers.com ($5 per, free shipping) but I don't like the permanence of actually pasting them on my car, so I tape them to the inside of the window. So to me your find is PERFECT!
:woohoo:

I'm on my way to Staples!! Thank you!!

11. I had taped bumper stickers to the inside of my rear window and the
adhesive from the tape is BAKED ON my window! I have yet to get it off. I tried goo-off...no help, just smeared it even worse. The next thing I'm going to try is my vapor cleaner...extremely HOT steam. I'm hoping that will just melt it off. My rear window is so smeared up now with sticky adhesive.:( *sigh* What I won't go through to get Bush out of office.:crazy:

22. 99% Alchohol is also good for cleaning adhesives..
Make sure it's the strong stuff. 70% likely won't do it.

24. OK. Can I buy 99% alcohol at a drug store or would I have to ask
a pharmacy to order it?

27. Easy to get at many larger supermarkets & drugstores
I've seen 70, 91 and 99 all on the shelf. Safeway out west carries 99% I think.

29. Stop at a liquor store and buy grain alcohol.
The really cheap stuff. A half pint is just a few bucks.

19. A neat trick for changing bumper stickers.
Go to a craft store and buy the sheet magnets they sell. It should come in a roll that's about two feet across and a few feet long, and should cost about ten bucks. You can then roll out the sheet magnet flat, stick the bumper sticker directly to it, and cut out the sticker so you have a nice, magnetic label that can be applied to any steel part of your car. A single roll will make at least half a dozen bumper-sticker-sized magnetic labels.

The best part? You can remove it to go through car washes or through Freeperville, and then put it right back on afterwards. It's just like a refrigerator magnet. I've had one of these on the back bumper of my car for four years, and it has never come loose.
