Many people will say : “Why buy glue and invest more time and labor, since there are self adhesive stickers on the market that I will put easier and faster? ” You should be aware that self-adhesive stickers have a much lower density and one of the main problems is that they should be placed on a perfectly smooth surface in order not to disturb the effect of the image.
