Magnetic Numbers?

PostPost by: rickf » Mon Mar 01, 2004 3:18 pm

I've suddenly realized that magnetic numbers won't stick to my fiberglass doors. Anybody know what I should use?

Use regular stick on ones. If they are only left on for the duration of the meet then they should peel off quite easily with a bit of heat from a hair dryer.

I have had mixed results with the static cling types... finishing a race with less numbers than I started with.

Hello, anyone still out there? Has there been a magnetic Lotus? I can't think of one, but that seems too good to be true, an automobile manufacturer in business for more than fifty years that has never produced a steel body? Are there others? Saturn? ...but will they last fifty years?
