TIPS & TRICKS FOR ALL APPLICATIONS

  • Always apply to a clean and flat surface - this ensures the decal will stick well and prevent risk of short term life.

  • The longer you leave a decal before use, the longer it will last

  • Temperatures can affect application - if it’s too hot or cold it may be hard to separate from backing paper to transfer tape. Use your fingers and rub the tape to warm up or wait for the room temperature to cool

  • If the decal isn’t sticking to the transfer tape, carefully use your fingernail to peel a small corner of the text/image away so it sticks, from then pull at a 45° angle and it should come apart smoothly.
