Application Instructions
View our official Decal Application Instructions
Download (PDF)IMPORTANT– DO NOT APPLY GRAPHICS IF THE SURFACE TEMPERATURE IS BELOW 50°F or ABOVE 100°F. PLEASE TAPE ALL DECALS IN PLACE PER THE ATTACHED LAYOUT BEFORE APPLYING.
1
Prep the Surface
Clean the surface the decal will be applied to. For vehicles, wipe down the surface with rubbing alcohol and wipe dry with paper towels.
2
Decal Alignment
If a layout is provided, align the decal using those specifications. If not, measure the surface to determine the proper placement for the decal.
3
Create the Hinge
After decal is positioned, secure it to the surface with masking tape through the middle of the decal, either top to bottom or side to side. This will be your hinge.
4
Remove the Liner
Carefully peel back the bottom layer of paper (the liner), leaving the decal stuck to the top layer (the premask), all the way to the hinge. Cut away the liner at the hinge.
5
Apply the Decal
While holding the loose end of the decal away from the surface, use a squeegee to slowly lower the decal to the surface. ALWAYS start in the middle and work outwards.
6
Smooth the Decal
Use smooth strokes to press the decal to the surface and to work out any air bubbles. NEVER use a back and forth scrubbing motion.
7
Remove the Hinge
Remove your masking tape hinge.
8
Remove the Liner
Remove the liner from the remaining side, taking care to hold loose end away from surface.
9
Repeat on Other Side
Repeat steps 5 & 6 with the remaining side.
10
Remove the Premask
After all air bubbles have been smoothed out, start at one corner and slowly pull the top layer away. Use slow and even pressure and pull the paper back over onto itself.
11
Finishing
After the premask has been removed, take a soft cloth and carefully go over decal, using slight pressure. This will reapply any edges you may have pulled up when removing the top paper.
PLEASE CUT OUT ANY PART OF THE GRAPHICS THAT APPLY OVER NON-PAINTED PLASTIC MOULDING. HOWEVER, IT IS ACCEPTABLE TO APPLY THE GRAPHICS OVER PAINTED MOULDING.
