Decal Application Instructions


To ensure proper bonding and long lasting adhesive effect, follow the procedures below for applying decals.

A. Surface area where decal is to be applied must be clean, smooth, and dry. Any dirt, grease, or oil must be removed before applying decal.

B. Any adhesive residue left from previously applied decals must be completely removed. If a commercial decal remover is used to clean adhesive residue, it must be tested on the application surface in an inconspicuous place, to determine if any damage will result. After cleaning, dry the surface with a clean, soft rag.

SAFETY NOTE: When working with solvents, use solvent-proof gloves and safety goggles. Follow safety directions on containers of solvent and on solvent material safety data sheets.


C. Person applying the decal must have clean, dry hands, free of all dirt, grease, and oil.

D. Using both hands, lightly place decal on desired surface. DO NOT BOND TIGHT AGAINST SURFACE. Check for correct position, straightness, etc.

E. Starting at the center of the decal, move hands out towards ends of decal, using firm pressure to eliminate any “air” pockets from forming. The use of a clean “damp”, but not wet, rag or sponge makes it easier to burnish the decal. Smooth out until all of the decal is firmly bonded.

F. After applying decal, recheck to make sure that all edges are tightly bonded and that there are no “air” pockets. If decal has not tightly bonded, go through procedures again, reapplying the decal.
