    CORRECTION: To be more specific about the alcohol I used to clean, it's 70%-90% isopropyl alcohol. The inactive ingredient on the label should be just water.

      Could you use soapy water to apply it? To make it easier not to get it to stick just incase you need to move it around.

      @xplaunch  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@robertsamueljr2878 hi, yes. Wet application can also work but works better with a paper transfer tape. The transfer tape in the video is vinyl. It can work with it but may be a little harder for most people and not necessary for small decals.

    I appreciate the way you packed a lot of good detail into a short and to-the-point video, and gave people the option of pausing to re-read if needed. A lot of these tutorial-type videos are unnecessarily dragged out and longer than they need to be. I think you hit the sweet spot between detail & simplicity with this one.

    I just used the second method in the video to install a portion of the factory OEM striping on my Mustang fenders. The stripes have to be purchased whole and cost ~$85 each so I wanted to get it right. I had an aftermarket hood installed and the fenders were blended to match. I was on the fence about using the wet application method with soapy water but decided to do a dry install like in the video. I used masking tape and a straight edge to first install a guideline... I washed the area with water and then 70% isopropyl alcohol. Fortunately, the car has not been waxed since the paint work so that made the prep easier. I wiped the area with a microfiber/lint free cloth. Since it was ~40F, I gently heated the fender and the decal with a hair dryer then I taped it into position. I followed the instructions in the video for application and it came out perfect with no air bubbles (and level).

      Thank you. I appreciate it. Sometimes when I'm unsure where to put a decal, I take a picture of whatever I want to put it onto and photoshop the decal onto it so I have an idea what it'll look like before I put it on. Or just use the masking tape to hold it while you look from a distance.

    The best goo remover I have found is your local store brand alcohol based hand-sanitizer (essentially, isopropyl alcohol), but for some reason hand-sanitizer seems to work better than plain isopropyl alcohol. The hand sanitizer also works GREAT on old-never-going-to-be-rubbed-off white board ink on your whiteboard. It works like magic!

    I applied a retro decal to my Mopar and screwed it up. Then when it went into the wash bay, part of it tore off. So, i ordered another set and figured i'd take more caution this time around. This video is exactly what i needed.

    Hello there, thank you very much for your informative video. However I got some bubbles on my decal, will they really disappear after a month or so...?

    • @xplaunch
      @xplaunch  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi, most small bubbles, yes, they will go away. But bigger bubbles, you can "pop" them. Poke a small hole in the side of the bubble and press into it to push the air out. It won't be perfect but it won't be noticeable.

    IT's cool here in the NW, can I use a blow dryer to warm the sticker as I am applying it?

    • @xplaunch
      @xplaunch  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi. You can warm the surface a little before applying. But I wouldn’t directly warm the decal (although you can, I don't think it's necessary for this application. Usually warming the decal itself will make it softer for applying around edges or rivets, etc. It can also stretch the decal if you're not sure what you're doing). As long as the surface isn’t super cold, just cool is fine.

    I likecto use pure isopropyl alcohol like type you get at hardware stores. Rubbing alcohol has a small amount of oil in it. Good strong ammonia works fine for glass too.

    @pacmancalgary 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    On some decals, do you remove the clear side and the decal is stuck to the paper tape portion? That's how the one I've got is and I'm trying to figure out how to install it.

    • @xplaunch
      @xplaunch  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi,
      If the decal is die-cut, meaning it's not just 1 solid piece that you can peel and stick, then it's supposed to be stuck onto the clear or masking tape-looking part (called the transfer tape). That's how you transfer it over without it losing its positioning. If the decal didn't stick to the clear when you pulled it off, refer to my section earlier in the video about it not sticking to the transfer tape. It may be possible to get it to stick to the clear again but it may take a lot of effort. You might have to use your fingernails to gently scrap the edge of each decal piece so it starts to come off and stick to the transfer tape.

      You're welcome! A warmer day is still better than a cooler day. Any extreme in either direction is bad though. I would try to stick with a warm day around 75-85 degrees if possible. Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Thank you!

    Mate, thanks: a good simple instruction for a complete newbie. One question: how long should I leave a decal (applied to a caravan on a painted surface) before next using wash and wax/car wash?

    • @xplaunch
      @xplaunch  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi, I'm glad it helped. 24 hours is usually enough for it to completely adhere to the surface. I would give it 2 days, though, just to be safe. Take care cleaning around a decal also. If you're using a fabric cloth to dry the surface, pat or carefully go around the edges of the decal so you don't lift any corners. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you!

    Just an observation but I've just bought a Golf TCR & the decals on the bottom of the rear doors are missing. I've obtained them. Ive applied a lot of decals on Motorcycles and always in the past used to wet the Decal face & panel with a light soap/water mix. Then move it in position. Once happy, Squeegee over the Decal to remove any excess water/bubbles, Then peel off the holding sheet. Is that not done anymore?

    • @xplaunch
      @xplaunch  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi, wet application is definitely still used and a great method, especially for larger decals that have less room for error. It does however, work better with a paper transfer tape rather than a clear plastic one since the water can soak through the paper better. The one in this video is a dry method that can work with any type of transfer tape and easier for the average person to apply smaller decals. It’s a matter of preference, experience, and material. If you’re comfortable with wet application, you should continue with that method.

I think I'll get the Car in the Garage after moving the other one out & do it with the door closed. Bizzarely, Seen as the Decal length is only about 9 inches there is at least as much material again either side. I couldn't believe it when I collected them from the Dealers.
