Dry
Method
For
small decals (less than
12 inches), please read
the instructions below.
For
optimum results, apply
decal at room
temperature (55 to 75
degrees) or above.
1.
Clean the surface
thoroughly with a
lint-free cloth. For
best results, the
surface must be clean
and free of all waxes
and residue.
2.
Slowly
pull the backing
(heavier gauge paper)
off from the decal. If
part of the decal moves
out of its original
position, you can put it
back into place by
pushing the backing down
and move the decal back
to its original
position.
3.
Decide where you
want to place the decal
and carefully apply the
adhesive side of the
decal to the surface.
IMPORTANT:
Once
the decal is applied to
the surface, it cannot
be re-adjusted. If you
want to be able to
re-adjust the decal
after applying it to the
surface, please read the
wet application
instructions. The wet
application method is
recommended for large
decals, but you may also
choose to use it on
small decals.
4.
Remove the masking
tape by slowly peeling
at the corner. If there
are any air bubbles
under the decal, work
the bubble to the edge
of the decal with your
fingers. You can also
use a small needle to
poke a hole in the
bubble and work the
bubble toward the hole
to flatten the surface |

Wet
Method
For
large decals (more than
12 inches), please read
the instructions below.
Lint-free
Cloth
Squeegee
Slippery
Solution (a drop of soap
diluted in a gallon of
water)
Optional
Materials:
Measuring
Tape
Needle
For
optimum results, apply
decal at room
temperature (55 to 75
degrees) or above.
1.
Clean
the surface thoroughly
with lint-free cloth.
For best results, the
surface must be clean
and free of all waxes
and residue.
2.
Slowly
pull the backing
(heavier gauge paper)
off from the decal. If
part of the decal moves
out of its original
position, you can put it
back into place by
pushing the backing down
and move the decal back
to its original
position.
3.
Mix a single drop of
soap with water into a
spray bottle to create a
“slippery solution.”
Spray the solution to
the adhesive side of the
decal.
4.
Spray the solution to
the surface area where
the decal will be
installed on. Make sure
the surface area is
completely wet to ensure
that you can make proper
adjustments to the decal
later.
5.
Apply the adhesive side
of the decal to the
surface. At this point
before the slipper
solution dries, you can
adjust and readjust the
decal without damaging
it.
6.
Once
you are satisfied with
the position of the
decal, go over the top
of the decal with a
squeegee. Repeat this a
few times until
you
remove most of the
slippery solution
between the decal and
the surface.
7.
Wait
approximately 10 to 15
minutes for the decal to
dry. Remove the masking
tape by slowly peeling
at the corner. If there
are any
air bubbles under the
decal, work the bubble
to the edge of the decal
with your fingers. You
can also use a small
needle to poke a hole in
the bubble and work the
bubble toward the hole
to flatten the surface.
Caution:
Cold and wet weather can
affect the drying time.
