Decal application

I bought a fairly large sticker for Donna's Jeep - one of those stars inside a circle, about 22" in diameter. Came with a paper backing on the sticky side, and looks like a clear vinyl backing on the "good" side. It wasn't real expensive, but I don't want to mess it up. Anybody got any tips for a tight, bubble free application technique?

Thanks,

I have never done one that large but one thing I have found with all of those types is the warmer the surface is the better. So if you can do it in a heated or warmed garage that will help. At the least park the Jeep in the sun for awhile.

When i apply mine, I usually have a person with me smooth it out as i put Them on. I know that is not a rocket science technique, But its worked every time. lol

Good luck!

Here's a video that will get you started. Although it's applied to glass, the method is the same for metal.

Google "applying large decals" and you'll find all kinds of information.
