    12 years later and this video is still helping people apply large decals like a pro. Thank you for sharing this! Just follow these simple instructions and you will get great results. Got decals on a trailer looking good thanks to you.

    Thank you so much for this help. I managed to complete a very large transfer myself for my son's room. Your instructions are perfect. Massive thanks from Scotland UK. Hope you are staying safe.

    I spoke too soon. I had 3- 3' x 13" Decals to put up on outside metal warehouse doors. This was the first time I did decals of this large size. Everything else i had done in the past were the size of bumper stickers. Using your method and my OCD, they turned out perfect. Thanks again for putting this on RUclips.

    I took notes on all the steps (later when installing I would have forget it) and it really works!
    Believe or not, we didnt find any company to do this for us in a 200 km radius, so we have to do it our selves...
    Thanks a million!

    I watched this video this morning. And I was able to immediately adhered my vinyl sign to my wall. The only additional advice I would give is: take your time peeling the letters from the top surface. But yes I was able to do it myself and this is not in my skillset. LOL

    This is the method I use, too. However, I find that using a gift wrap cutting blade is much easier than a pair of scissors for cutting away the backing paper!

    Thank you Veritas. V v good explanation and demonstration. Once the right hand half is fixed, and you start to peel off the backing from the left hand side, why peel it from the left rather than the centre, which would seem to make more sense to avoid bubbles/creases? Thanks again.

    Let me save some of you a LOT of time and effort with vinyl decals: invest in a little thing called an Everhard roof roller. The 2" red roller with a blue plastic handle or wooden handle. Every single job I've done in the 5 years I've used it has taken half the time it would have, using a squeegee.

  • @alecpajor9273
    @alecpajor9273 5 месяцев назад

    Is it possible if the sticker was too thin this kind of quick application wouldn’t go so well? My dad has a buisness with his own sticker printer. I feel like the stickers are way too thin and can only be applied wet. Stickers are being applied to trucks.

    +1 for a QR code on the little slip of paper you include with your product. I viewed it on my computer, so I had a keyboard with which to enter it -- but so many people rely on their smartphones to get online that a QR code would make a big difference.

    This was a helpful video. Only thing is our decal wasn't sticking to my daughter's wall. Maybe I had it in the package way too long because we ordered it a while back and just now put it on and parts of it is not sticking. Any advice on how to keep it stuck to the wall ? I thought about putting a clear glitter spray paint but not sure if that will help or not. Any advice will be greatly appreciated 😍

    Please explain what you mean by using soapy water? I did one side of my trailer yesterday and it looks horrible. Came back to your video for a refresher lesson and caught that tidbit. Help please?

    • @MrLucifuge1973
      @MrLucifuge1973 5 лет назад +1

      If you spray the surface of your trailer with soapy water it wont stick right away. It'll grab but you'll have a bit of time to adjust your "sticker". It provides enough slippage to squeeze out bubbles or creases. Check out this video from a couple who use a wet application method. ruclips.net/video/eEey_-99mIA/видео.html A lot of professionals dislike the wet method for varying reasons but as a non pro it helped me through my install. Hope this helps

    • @StickitDecals
      @StickitDecals 9 лет назад +1

      +Bill Balsamico Place both pieces on the wall with the backing still on to get them where you want them. Use this method for one of the pieces. After you have that one piece on the wall, pull back about a half inch or so of the backing paper and fold it over or cut it off. You can then line the seams up and not have a lot sticky part touching the wall so you can reposition it. Then once you have it lined up, do this method for that piece as well.

      We have done that - if it is very rough don't even bother trying! But if it is nor so rough try painting the wall with a few coats of clear sealant then try.
