Application Instructions
1. Pre-Squeegee Before Separating
After cutting your sticker/decal out, position the design face down with the white side up. Utilize the padded end of the provided squeegee to apply firm pressure, moving back and forth 3-5 times.
This imposes the design onto the transparent carrier sheet. The thinner and more isolated design elements, like small text, require greater caution.
2. Separating The Clear Carrier Sheet From The White Backing
To separate the clear carrier sheet from the white backing, a small tear can help. Avoid tearing near the design. Then, carefully lift the clear carrier sheet to grip it and slowly separate it from the white backing.
You can start from any end of your design, as you may need to pull from different sides for a clean separation. This ensures every piece of your design is lifting onto the clear carrier sheet. If it's not, set it back down, squeegee again, and try pulling that specific area which different lift from a different side.
3. Placing Transfer/Design Onto Your Item
Begin by identifying the placement area on your item. Carefully place the design from one side to the other to control placement, reduce bubbles, and prevent wrinkling of the carrier sheet to avoid design offset or overlapping.
Tip: Leave and edge of the carrier sheet lifted, aka "Dog Earred", so you can easily grip it.
4. Completing The Transfer Process
Once the item is in place, apply the padded end of the squeegee with strong pressure, moving it back and forth 3-5 times. This promotes adhesion of your design. Be careful not to squeegee over the 'dog-eared' edge to preserve grip.
You are now set to gently peel. Use your eyes as you peel the clear carrier sheet from one end to the other to preserve your design on the item. Adjust your grip inward for a steady peel. If elements don't transfer, reapply pressure and attempt pulling from a different direction.
