Vehicle Decal Tips:
✔ Choose the Right Spot – Pick a clean, smooth surface like your car’s window or body panel. Avoid placing it over seams or textured areas.
✔ Clean Thoroughly – Use soap and water (or rubbing alcohol) to remove dirt, dust, and oils. Let it dry completely before applying the decal.
✔ Peel Carefully – Slowly remove the backing, making sure the decal stays on the clear transfer tape.
✔ Align Before Sticking – Hold the decal up to the spot before pressing it down to ensure proper placement. Once it sticks, it’s hard to reposition!
✔ Smooth It Out – Use a credit card or squeegee to press out air bubbles from the center outward.
✔ Peel the Transfer Tape Slowly – After applying, gently peel off the clear transfer tape at a sharp angle. If the decal lifts, press it down and try again.
✔ Let It Cure – Avoid washing your car for at least 24 hours to let the adhesive fully set.
📍 Pro Tip: If applying in cold weather, use a hairdryer on low heat to warm up the surface for better adhesion!
