Important: The striping material highlights vehicle surface imperfections. Eliminate all of the following before applying the stripe or the decal:

Important: Apply stripes and decals in a clean environment where dust and fibers do not interfere with proper adhesion.

1. Clean the area where you will apply the decal.

1.1.	Use the suitable solvents such as flash naptha, or a 50/50 mixture by volume of isopropyl alcohol and clean drinkable water.

1.2.	Dry the area thoroughly with a clean lint-free cloth.

1.3.	Repaint the area. Feather the paint in, if the paint is chipped.

2. Warm the body surface to 27-38°C (80-100°F).
3. Apply the tape stripe or the decals that wrap into the body openings or mount on flexible surfaces wet.

Use the following procedure for wet application of stripes and decals:

4. Use Dupont Duponal WA or the equivalent for a wetting agent. Do not use a soap solution.
5. Spray a mist of solution onto the body area.
6. Peel the backing away from the decal.
7. Spray the adhesive backing of the decal in hot, humid weather with a mist of the wetting solution.
8. Position the decal in the desired location on the body surface.
9. Using a dampened squeegee, starting at the center of the decal, work from the center outward in both directions.
10. Squeegee the decal, in position, onto the body, removing any air bubbles along with the wetting solution.
11. Pull the decal back onto itself in order to remove the premask from the decal.
12. Squeegee the decal again.
13. Prick any air bubbles with a pin, if present.
