Default Just got Team SR windshield banner... Questions!

I just put that banner to front windshield and they look really nice... except that some letter is not flat and has some kind of air bumps (not sure how to explain it sad.gif).
Anyway, my questions are

1. How do I remove this if I want to change this in the future?

2. Is there any way to make air bumps go away?

The easiest way would to take a needle and poke a hole where the air bubble is....then press around so that the air can escape......Don't worrie you won't be able to see the pin poke.....

Yes you can remove it, but it will be next to impossible to re-apply it again and get the letters to line up right.

Thanks for the post. When a local shop applied my banner, one of the small "w"s was slightly "scrunched."

Its hardly noticeable...except from me. I would have to slice right down through the "w" to clear the bubble since the raised area goes right through the letter (kinda hard to explain).

I fear making this incision would eventually cause the latter to fly off eventually. Thoughts?

OK I used needle, but somehow, it didn't work. I think my needle sux. I'll try to use razor blade trick.

Thanx everyone!
