Written steps

  1. Grab a cover sticker, rubbing alcohol, a soft cloth, and an old gift card.
  2. Clean the spot with a little alcohol. Oils and dust are what make stickers peel.
  3. Let the surface dry completely.
  4. Line the sticker up over the logo before it touches. It gets less sticky every time you lift it. Then press from the middle outward.
  5. Run the card across the sticker to push out bubbles.

Curved surfaces: stickers hold best on flat surfaces. On a bottle or mug, a small round sticker is your best bet, and it may still lift over time. Large rectangles wrinkle around a curve. To make a sticker last on drinkware, hand-wash rather than using the dishwasher.
