GENERAL INFORMATION
•
Rub the spatula (1) across the decal surface
pressing moderately until removing excess soap
and water from under the decal.
IMPORTANT: Take care not to lift the decal corners
and edges in the process.
•
Dry up the decal with an absorbent cloth. Apply
cloth in the centre and move outwards.
•
Rub the decal using the spatula with firm, regular
strokes. Apply the spatula in the centre and move
outwards. Take special care with corners and
edges to ensure proper adhesion across the
whole surface.
IMPORTANT: Where decals come with application
tape (5), remove tape 20-30 minutes after decal
application.
•
Peel off the application tape (5) from decal
surface.
•
Pass the spatula across the decal again –
particularly over corners and edges – to ensure
proper adhesion.
IMPORTANT: Decals applied using water will take
about 48 hours to stick to part permanently.
•
Once you have removed the application tape,
check for any air trapped underneath the decal.
If there are any air bubbles:
•
Prick a hole on the edge (7) of the air bubble
using a pin or a cutter (6).
•
Apply the spatula (1) at the opposite end and
move it across the bubble to squeeze air out.
The application tape serves to facilitate applying
trademarks and letters by keeping them aligned as
well as giving more consistency to the adhesive during
application.
