Default Re: applying vinyl

I dont like applying wet to windows. It gives me alot of trouble.

I like to make sure I use alot of even pressure. I always know when Im not doing this ....too many bubbles.

Like today But I just use a regular pin, pick the bubble close to the edge of it(make a very small hole), and squeegee the air out. Gently tho, you dont want to create a wrinkle or stretched vinyl in the middle of your graphic.

Some bubbles I dont like to mess with, and I instruct the client to keep the graphic in the sun for a couple days. The bubbles will gas out....and if they dont, I tell them to call me and I'll change the lettering. The bubbles always go away, and I havent been called back. (even after checking with the customer to make sure the bubbles are gone)
