How to Apply Your Vinyl Decal
Follow these simple steps to ensure your decal goes on smooth and stays put:
What You’ll Need
- Vinyl decal
- Clean, flat surface (glass, wall, metal, etc.)
- Squeegee or credit card
- Rubbing alcohol or soapy water
- Soft cloth or paper towel
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Clean the Surface: Wipe thoroughly with rubbing alcohol or soapy water. Dry completely.
- Position the Decal: Without peeling, place the decal to visualize placement. Tape in place if needed.
- Peel the Backing: Slowly peel away the white paper backing, making sure the vinyl sticks to the clear transfer tape.
- Apply the Decal: Press the transfer tape (with vinyl) onto the surface, smoothing from center outward.
- Squeegee It Down: Use a squeegee or credit card to push out bubbles and firmly attach the decal.
- Remove the Tape: Peel off the transfer tape slowly at an angle. Vinyl should stay on the surface.
- Final Touch: Press out small bubbles. Don’t wash or touch for 24 hours.
