Quick answer
Clean the surface, remove any backing film, press each suction cup firmly onto dry glass or mirror, and check adhesion every few days.
Why surface prep matters
Dust, moisture, or residue from previous stickers can prevent the four suction cups from forming a tight seal. A quick clean with a lint-free cloth and glass cleaner gives you the best grip.
Both the Art the Clown and Sam plush clingers are 6 inches tall with identical cup placement, so the same prep works for either character.
Step-by-step display guide
- Clean the surface: Wipe the window or mirror with a glass cleaner and a lint-free cloth. Let it air-dry completely. Avoid paper towels – they can leave fibers that break the suction seal.
- Peel any protective film: Check each suction cup for a thin plastic film left from manufacturing. If present, remove it before sticking. A missed film is the most common reason a new clinger falls off.
- Press each cup firmly: Place the clinger against the glass and press each suction cup for 5–10 seconds. Work from the center outward to push out trapped air. If a cup doesn't hold, re-clean that spot and try again – oil from your fingers can reduce grip.
- Check adhesion every few days: Give each cup a gentle tug to confirm it's still sealed. Re-press any that feel loose. Temperature changes can soften or harden the cups, so a quick weekly check prevents falls.

Trick 'r Treat Sam Plush Window Clinger: Sam's design includes a burlap sack with rope tie and button eyes, plus four sturdy suction cups for sticking to smooth surfaces. The burlap texture is lightweight, so the clinger won't pull the cups loose as long as the surface is properly prepped.
