“I received my boat name for both sides in just a few days... I found that the suggestion to use a water spray bottle with a couple of drops of dishwashing soap worked very well to squeegee out the letters. The first side went like a gem...but the backing paper (which is in contact with the vinyl adhesive) on the second side separated into two layers in several areas...one thin layer staying stuck to the adhesive...I was able to carefully remove the paper by using a razor blade and slowly lifting the paper away from the adhesive... it took about three times longer for the second sheet than the first (I didn't want to cut through the lettering as I razored and lifted the residue) * * * * reply * * * * Thanks for the feedback. You mentioned the second side separated. And on the first side you used the wet method. For future reference, the paper separating and sticking to the back of the vinyl is always due to moisture - probably from overspray while applying the first side. To avoid, this problem, it is very important when installing with the 'wet method', to keep the water (even a mist) away from the decal's paper backing. While this can become frustrating, as you mentioned, it is fixable with a little attention to detail. Hope this helps.” |
