The stick on eyes don't really stick on and you need something like super glue!
Will get more info in a bit plus am sure more guys will chime in soon!

Be careful not to use Sally Henson's over Chartreuse or FL Yellow because it will change their color and not a good way! You can use Clear Vinyl over them and you can paint it on, just take a little drying time and then it's all set! The Duco is fine and used by a lot of guys, but I like the Loctite Super Glue Gel. For me it's easy to get a tiny drop on to stick it down good. You can also use UV glue, but it's costly to use, but it sets immediately when you shine the light on it!
Just used a good strong glue that you like. and if you over coat Sally's is fine for most color, but do not use it over Chartreuse or FL Yellow!
