Introduction
Installing decals with transfer paper on cars and boats can be a great way to personalize your vehicle or advertise your business. Follow this easy step-by-step guide to achieve a professional finish.
Step 1: Prepare the Surface
Clean the surface thoroughly with soap and water. Remove any dirt, grease, or wax. Dry the surface completely before proceeding.
Step 2: Plan the Placement
Measure and mark the area where you want to apply the decal. Use masking tape to create guidelines.
Step 3: Peel the Backing
Carefully peel the backing paper from the decal and transfer paper, starting from one corner. Avoid touching the adhesive side.
Step 4: Position the Decal
Align the decal with your guidelines and press it lightly onto the surface using the transfer paper. Start from the center and work your way outwards.
Step 5: Apply the Decal
Use a squeegee or credit card to smooth out the decal. Apply even pressure and work from the center outwards to remove any air bubbles.
