How to Apply a Car Decal
Window and bumper stickers are no longer popular, so most people are using car decals these days to highlight their choices or to promote their brands. Car stickers are easier to apply and remove, but they are not as attractive and useful as car decals. Applying a car decal to your vehicle can change its appearance and help you advertise your brand or showcase your interest in any particular thing such as a sports team, university, or company.
If you want to apply a car decal to your vehicle by yourself, you can consider the following guidelines. Applying and removing a car decal is a bit complicated, but these steps will help you:
Before installing a car decal, you must first clean and prepare the surface of the car. If you apply the decal on an unprepared or dirty car surface, it will look kinky. Thus, the first step is to clean the car by using soap and water. Also, fix the scratches and rust and avoid using glass cleaning products on the car’s surface.
The second step is to decide the location of the car where the decal is to be applied. Most car owners apply a car decal onto the bumper, exterior surfaces, and windows of the cars. Some people also apply a decal onto the tire to make it look more stylish.
Once you’ve decided where to apply the decal, the next step is to peel the back film from the decal. Peel the film carefully and make sure that the decal doesn’t touch anything or else it can get dirty.
One thing to remember is that don’t remove the back film of the decal completely. You can remove one third or half film from the decal and start applying it to the car surface. Smooth it out using your hands and remove the remaining part of the back film from the decal.
Slim and smooth down the decal and trim any fenders or obstructions using a razor blade. Make sure there are no bubbles or kinks between the car’s surface and the decal.
To remove the car decal, a good tip is to warm it up using a hair dryer. Now, you can use a plastic card and scrape up under the car decal to remove it. Although you can do this yourself it's usually best to leave it to the professionals. Ensure your car decal is applied correctly by scheduling an appointment with RM Windowtint.
