Temporary Wrap?

Is there any temporary wrap that one could use on the Smart Fortwo that one can remove with little or no trouble?

I'm working on that concept right now. Not sure I'll be successful, but it should not be a difficult process. Stay tuned.

I think cardboard and duct tape would be pretty temporary!

I have tried card board and duct tape. It is too temporary.

I found window magnet that one can use in ones printer and clings to glass like a magnet. It would be interesting to see if it works with the plastic panels.

I have even read of temporary car paint that washes off with soapy water. That could be like your 'water color' ?

I will check out both.

It goes on the hood to get peoples attention so they would look at the message/picture on the card board.

where did you find this product? I am looking for something like this that can be printed on to make a decal behind the inside mirror to block the sun

I had found them at Staples. I looked but they did not seem to be there any more. I will check the Staples.com site and other office supply stores - online and offline - to see if they have any. There are things at their site that are not available at their store.
