Material-Specific Specifications

Standard Vinyl

  • The minimum application temperature for this product is 50 degrees F, so ensure that the sticker and car is no colder than that when you go to apply it. 

  • The material requires a dry application, so do not use any water/soap/application liquid with it. 

GlassApeel

  • This can be applied in most weather temperatures.

  • The material requires a wet application, but only use water, no chemicals.

  • Spray water on the back of the decal and the application surface before application, then squeegee from the center to the edge to force air/water bubbles out and apply.

  • This material is repositionable - remove, clean with water if needed, and reapply.

General Installation Best Practices

  • We recommend cleaning the area prior to installation with soap or rubbing alcohol and water. Cleaning products may leave a residue behind that will prevent the sticker from adhering fully. 

  • To reduce the chance of bubbles, install cut vinyl or large stickers using the hinge method. Video example included below. 

    • For this method, you’ll place the sticker on the area where you want it to be (with the backing still on it). 

    • Then use masking tape (or any low tack tape) on the center of the sticker to hold it in place (this is your “hinge”). 

    • On one side of the hinge, peel the backer away and cut it off. 

    • Then use a felt squeegee (or similar item) to press the sticker on the masking tape hinge and slowly out to the edge of the sticker. 

    • When that side is done, you’ll remove the rest of the backer and squeegee the other side down, again, going out from that hinge.
