Can you provide more information, Don? What kind of vinyl? Curling on the liner or in what sort of application?

sharp points almost always peel up, they don't have the surface area to keep themselves planted on the surface.
Lightly rounded or less sharp corners stay down better, and as mentioned before, a dot of edge sealer (or clear nail polish) can help keep those things down.

Replace with better vinyl. I cut flames for my "work truck" 2 years ago as a test. I used 3-M HP vinyl. The flames have very long, thin single node points on them. I work out of it every day, get it plenty dirty (even muddy if the weather is right), and wash it very often (sometimes 2-3 times a week), but have only waxed it once. If the weather is warm, and I have time, I wash it by hand, and scrub it well, because it may not get another good washing for a while. I run it through the gas station automatic wash almost every time I get gas. Not one point has offered to lift in 2 years.
BTW... I also cleaned with RapidPrep before installation. Even good vinyl needs a good clean surface to perform correctly.
