What Is The Reason For This Recent Trend On Cars In Nigeria (see PHOTOS)




Car door handle sticker films are used to protect car door cups from scratches or marks. These scratches and marks are typically left there by rings, nails or keys when drivers are in a rush trying to get the door open or the key in the lock.

In new car shops, these stickers are placed on cars on display for sale in order to keep them from getting scratches from the constant opening by a potential buyer.

Typically, the stickers are removed as soon as buyers take possession of the cars.

Interestingly, in Nigeria, car door handle protector stickers have become quite common features on cars on the roads  – even on cars in derelict condition.

On these cars, the stickers give an outstanding feature on the cars that they are placed on.

This recent fad thus begs the question - Are these stickers for decorative purpose or to protect the car handle cup from scratches, marks, etc?

Try this.

Apply alcohol (Spirit) to the sticker. Then wait a few minutes before peeling away from the glass. Be careful, so you don't leave scratches while peeling.

Simple, when opening the door most often our fingers leave scratches either from finger nails or ring(s) on the finger, those stickers are meant to protect the door handle area from scratches.

Hmm

It's common in Abuja but not in lagos... In lagos if u put it on used cars ppl will laugh at you.

not sure its common in lagos though

Ok

It’s a glue to ensure that no one tampered with the car and its content during shipping
