How to Apply Car DECAL Sticker to License Plate Tag (New State Vehicle Put On DMV Registration)

Applying a decal sticker to your car's license plate is simple but requires precision to ensure it adheres properly and lasts. Here’s how to do it:
Materials Needed:
Your decal sticker
Clean cloth or paper towel
Rubbing alchol or soapy water
Plastic card (e.g., credit card) or squeegee (optional)
Steps to Apply the Decal Sticker:
Choose the Right Spot
Most states require the decal to be placed in a designated corner (usually the upper right or lower left). Check your state's DMV guidelines if unsure.
Clean the Surface
Wipe the license plate area where the decal will go using rubbing alcohol or soapy water.
Let it dry completely to ensure a strong bond.
Peel the Decal
Carefully remove the decal from its backing, avoiding touching the adhesive side too much.
Align the Sticker
Hold the decal close to the plate before pressing it down to make sure it’s straight and properly positioned.
Apply the Decal
Place the decal gently on the plate and press firmly, starting from the center and moving outward.
Use a plastic card or squeegee to smooth out any air bubbles.
Let It Set
Avoid washing the car or touching the decal for a few hours to ensure proper adhesion.
Tips:
If the decal is repositionable, you can lift and adjust it if needed.
For old decal removal, use a hairdryer to heat and loosen the adhesive before peeling.
If applying in cold weather, warm the plate and decal slightly to improve stickiness. #licenseplate #carregistration
