For all CSL wheel owners

I ordered and recieved my CSL's a couple of months ago. I love the wheels and the quality is great, however my little m/// stickers keep coming off. I check them quite a bit and have now super-glued them on. I do not know if this will last long or if it is a long-term fix.

So my question for all of you fellow CSL owners are as follows:

1. Do you have a simular problem?
2. If so what have you used to hold the m/// stickers in place?
3. Or do you have a better idea that will work better at holding the m/// stickers in place than superglue?


Thanks in advance!

Jared

Not one person? Can Velocity chime in to tell me what they think I should do, or tell me how to get new ones if needed?

Perhaps Betalink? I'd make sure I'd clean off the surface before putting on the stickers. Use something like a 50/50 mixture of water/rubbing alcohol. Or you can use betaclean.

When placing the M logos on - it should be done on a clean surface. Typically we'll use rubbing alcohol to clean the area off first. Then apply the stickers on. Using super glue is another method that some people use and I know that it holds up. On our own wheels with just the normal sticker's glue its held up for years now. We can always replace the M logos as well for you.

You can try what we use when applying the M-sticker. We've never had problems as long as we clean the area very well before application Use this:



And make sure it's completely DRY before applying the M-sticker. If you want to go super sticky, then go ahead and use the super glue in addition to the cleaner. Just make sure to apply pressure until the glue is cured and this should work.

I used a small piece of the 3M body molding tape (double-sided). Has worked great so far.
