What kind of vinyl are you using? Also, did you get any air bubbles doing it that way?
It looked like your vinyl is maybe the temporary removable kind which would make it a lot easier.

[@dorbin101]

it is air release premium vinyl. or air release removable monomeric vinyl from Avery Brand i think.

[@tonygiusto4627]

No way that's regular print vinyl. There would be bubbles and creases everywhere. I doubt he put it on wet too.
People, don't think putting up large decals is this easy. There is obviously some sort of details being left out in this video. Please follow other videos with proper instructions and demonstrations on applying decals.

Ever heard of air release vinyl? It's pretty much the standard these days.

[@pp-jh4ig]

Its probably air release + cold weather, anyway idiot advertising as their clients will not understand why a car wrap takes two days if this is so fast.

[@longliu2901]

a lot soap water pre applied？

[@Sigatuka]

sprayed with water?

[@mikeoliver9824]

installed dry

Eric Saluta yep hence the squeege

[@waqasKhan-jf5mf]

I need a this work job

[@SLAYERCAM]

I'm thinking rigid vinyl with low tack... maybe even wet. Without wet app or air release or rigid low tack... there would be bubbles.

Sorry for the delay in response on this but I did not see the comments until recently.
Installed dry. This was printed on promotional calendar vinyl with air release adhesive. The ice rink was cold which allowed the paper to release and prevent the adhesive from making a strong pre-contact to the surface. I have altered a window squeegee with a cloth that allows the squeegee to glide along the surface of the vinyl with heavy pressure applied.

There is no way he did that dry!!!! Coming from my perspective he had to of done that wet as hell!!!! No bubbles or wrinkles..... props for the large squeegee though!!! Reply back your process man!!

It looks to me like "static cling" the way he easily pulls the left side back off the substrate. Even 3M "control tac" wouldn't come up that easy. Just hope no one gets checked into it!
