Is this a bad idea

whenever i put stickers on my skis they always fall off, even when i do a once over with a hair dryer. do you guys think using a waxing iron to heat up the stickers would do any harm to my skis?

wondering if anyone has done this, and if it works or not.

just make sure you get high quality stickers made out of vinyl, NOT paper.

if you let it sit on top of your skis it would proably hurt it, but if you only had it on briefly (like ironing a shirt) it would probably do no harm

Clean the topsheet first with rubbing alcohol, any dirt or crap on there will weaken the bond. Stickers come off, they lose vs ski edges.
