Default Static or Adhesive Decals on a brushed finish?

I am curious from those of you that have brushed finishes on your cars...when choosing decals for the car are you using a static cling version like those found at racline digital or you guys using adhesive backed decals purhcased elsewhere?

Thanks in advance,

I would like to add, that I want to look into some for my car, but don't want to throw money away on the wrong type.

The static decals only stayed on my polished areas. Unless you are totally polished, you will need the adhesive.

Thank you Dean. That is what I was asking for and wondering about.

I'd go with sticky decals. I tried the static cling on my polished car and they literally just fell off.
I used spray adhesive to glue them on, which worked pretty well and they peeled off cleanly when required.
