Ok, there is a trick to it and all you need is a good Squeegee and a spray bottle full of water with a half a teaspoon of dish washing detergent added. This is how the professionals apply window tint and sign decals.

1) Spray the solution on the panel.
2) Spray the solution on the sticky side of the decal as you peel the backing paper off.
3) Place the decal on the panel and slide it around to the position you want it in.
4) Spray the solution over the face of the decal.
5) Using a hard rubber squeegee work from the middle out and squeegee the decal onto the panel with one hand while holding the decal in position with the other hand. Make sure you work any air bubbles out as you go.
6) Rinse off any detergent with plain water when finished.
7) Allow 1 hour dry time before driving car.

My Squeegee is a specially designed one for window tinting and is V shaped for getting right into the corners but as long as you have a hard rubber one it should work fine.



New paint should cure for a minimum of 7 days before applying decals. Dish washing detergent won't harm your paintwork. Surface must be clean and free of any polish or oils.
Thoroughly wet all surfaces with solution. Do it on a cool day in the shade or preferably under cover, night time is also good...... the solution won't evaporate as fast and it gives you more time to work out the air bubbles.

It's that easy............ Try it first with any old sticker/decal onto a piece of glass or whatever you like...... a bit of practice and you'll wonder why you ever thought it would be difficult.

There you go Blocker, your first "how to" on the Forum.
