So yesterday i put on the GTR tail and roof overlay. The tail was easier than i expected, especially based on a lot of feedback here.

The roof wasn't too bad either, but the excitement got the best of me and i did it so late at night in poor lighting that i missed a large spot just aft of the sunroof -- it's got dozens upon dozens of small bubbles, it looks like a bad rash.

The car has sat in the sun most of today but those bubbles aren't going anywhere. I could pop them, but that would take forever.

Does anyone here know how what i could do to salvage these?

Thanks.

^Maybe try putting a textbook or something on top of them while the car is in the sun? It might allow the adhesive on the vinyl to stick down and stay down. If that doesnt work, just start popping a few a day lol.

are they small or whats small to you?? usually if its small bubbles it will settle after a few days to a week with some sun as well. if their bigger then might have to try and push them out or peel a corner n try again n hope the adhesive isnt gone

Thanks for the responses, folks.

They're really small, but a large area of it... when i first saw it my reaction was "who sprayed water on the roof" -- fine mist almost, just a whole lot of it in one section about 12" square in area with a few more scattered outside of it.

hmmmm...it might be kind of a lot im not sure... that size and a small amount shouldnt be a problem but a foot section i dunno. but usually if a few small bubbles will go away after about a week. maybe another member might be able to have a better answer
