Decal Replacement

Flame Treating Decal Area
Plastic polyethylene material must be "flame treated"
prior to installing a decal to ensure good adhesion. The
flame treating procedure can often be used to reduce or
eliminate the whitish stress marks that are sometimes left
after a fender or cab is bent, flexed, or damaged.
WARNING
The following procedure involves the use of an open
flame. Wear the appropriate safety equipment at all
times. Perform this procedure in a well ventilated area,
away from gasoline or other flammable materials. Verify
the area to be flame treated is clean and free of
gasoline or flammable residue.
1. Pass the flame tip of a propane torch back and forth
quickly over the area where the decal is to be applied
until the surface appears slightly glossy. This should
occur after just a few seconds of flame treating. Do
not hold the torch too close to the surface. Keep the
torch moving to prevent damage.
2. Apply the decal.
