You should get some sand paper and rough up the surface a bit to help it stick. I don't remember which one I used (I think 500 grit?..), but I didn't have any runs and the final product looked smooth. Just remember to apply thin coats and let them dry in between. I let mine dry over night too, before I put them back on.

cool thanks guys...i freaked out for a min. i used steel wool and i guess it wasn't enough. i wasn't sure if 800-600 grit would be too rough for that surface but i guess imma have to give it a try cuz it looks like crap
