Are they safe to put on a car?

Thank you for your question Ms Hampton. The cow print stickers have a three year durability for outdoor applications. They can be used on cars but they are of a matte finish rather than the glossy that is mostly used on cars. We personally used them on our cars for about two years with no problems with cracking or fading but I wouldn't get them if you plan on having them on a car for more than 2 to 3 years. I hope that answered your question, but let me know if you have more. Thank you, StevePresto Chango Decor,inc.

TECHNICALLY no, they're not safe. That being said I've had a can hanging from the rear seat belt in my truck for a couple of years and have never had a problem. I too live in Scottsdale. I figure the worst case is they COULD rupture and it would make a bit of a mess, but the can says it's easy to clean up. I wouldn't worry too much about it. I do leave my windows cracked just a bit unless there's a monsoon coming or a dust storm in the area.

you could probably drive on safely if it were flat. before getting under the vehicle id probably shake the car on the side that is on the ramps just to make sure the ramps are embedded into the gravel and wont have any sudden movements.

Yes l it's perfectly safe. For a new car I will also use a hand glaze. And put the wax on top of that. It is months of protection

The plastic is hard but very smooth on most of the surface, so if your grandson bumps his head on the car, there should not be any significant injury to him or the car. I got these cars for my 1 year old grandson, but his older brother(3 years) plays with them as well. As you can imagine, the cars are put through every kind of treatment, seem to be holding up very well, and haven't caused any serious injury to either grandson.

I think the cones are low and pliable enough not to damage a car. Bumping them shouldn't damage them. Not sure about running them over.

They should , but to be safe , measure where they go on your car and check against the size specified .

I have them on our 1998 Corvette Convertible, they look great and were easy to install. I did get a set of spacers from the manufacture to give the covers of the front wheels a little more clearance, this helps in cleaning as well. I also put a set on our Pontiac Solstice , neither of these cars go out in foul weather so I don't know how they hold up if they get slopped up although they look like they should hold up.

They are soft enough for playing on (playing like standing and sitting, not like wrestling and falling), and certainly don't pose any hazards as far as breaking or damaging them. If properly put together they won't slide apart and leave exposed concrete or something. They are slightly textured which might be a disadvantage for use of toys like cars and things. My only real concern would be with their chemical make up. I'm not a chemist or a biologist so I can't speak to any chemical hazards associated with them. I would think they would be safe, but they do probably contain some plastic or petro chemical.

Yes. Mostly for show.. I wouldn't consider them safety equipment but then again the car is not that fast.

They were purchased and gifted in case they were ever needed in an emergency!! We hope they never have to be used, but possibly the manufacturer could answer your question. If they produce these, surely they must have tested them?? Give it a try or find a wrecked car.

You can, they are screwed to the car. But I would not recommend it as it'll get small scratches and they get blind this way over time.

Im gonna say probably not. If it was for a few minutes they prob be ok, but extended periods of time might cause sweathing and irritation in the light blue areas where the grips are. I went and looked at mine and I myself would not enjoy a car ride on one. I hope this helps.

I would say no. I don't think they would hold up between the heat from the headlights and weather. They'd work if you were doing something inside your car...

Hi Kate, it only took me a few minutes and it was don so I suppose doing it often shouldn't be too much trouble. However, take care of the plastic parts that cover the "roots" (where they go into the car) because they are fragile when installing, in fact one of mine came broken but they replaced it immediately. Other than that, they stayed on for the last 2 years without a problem.

Should not be a problem, unless the the paint is poor quality with poor adhesion. Factory paint or proper body shop paint should not be a problem

If you put them under the edge of the hood they will not hurt the paint. The directions should tell you how to put them on and were to put them properly. I have them on my VW just under the edge of the hood and have not had a problem with them with the wind. Good Luck
