Need assistance with 'peeling' decals...

Hi everyone! First off, I'd like to say that this is a pretty cool site!

Here's the problem that I'm having...on a couple of my sauber mercedes c9s (1/43 from Max Models) it seems that some of the decals are "peeling" off...not sure why they are so since I received them in this condition from ebay...I was wondering if anyone had tips on how to set them back to their original state? Thanks a bunch!

There is a "super glue" called Krystal Klear for glueing model windows and such. Try that out, glue them back on with that it shouldnt leave any residue.

Hello GTmike400...I guess the next question I have is: Are these decals on diecast models actually stickers or transfers? If so, then a decal setting solution is out of the question, and I might have to resort to your suggestion or even using white glue to "stick" them back...thanks for the reply!

Do you have a picture of the peeling decals? Then I could tell you.
