Had an idea but just don't know how to make it happen. Wouldn't it be nice if you could get the application fluid (Rapid Tac, etc.) in a small pack similar to the picture I have attached. It would be just enough to attach the decal and definitely would be easier to ship with the decal. Plus, you wouldn't have the labor of filling the little spray bottles.
So, who can make this happen?

That would be a great idea any one has a clue???

how would you apply it to the rhinestone motif when it is in a package?? With the bottle two quick pumps and its done.

You open the package, take out the little piece of fluid soaked paper, wipe the application fluid on the window and apply the decal.

OHHHHHHHH......duh moment. Closer look at the photo and I see now. When I first looked at the photo I just glanced, and didn't read it. Yeah that would be excellent.

That is okay. We all have those moments. Especially on a Friday afternoon.

I believe I saw in one of the threads that someone is using paper towel soaked in the fluid and placing that in a plastic baggie. Kind of the same concept. This would be great.

Kind of the same idea and I thought about doing that. My concern with that is if my customer doesn't apply the decal right away there would be the possibility of the paper towel drying out and becoming useless.

You'd probably have to supply two application towelettes. One to clean the surface area and the other for the decal. I wouldn't want the customer to use the same towelette after cleaning a dirty window and then wiping it on the back of the decal.

That is true. One alcohol prep and the application fluid.
Small, easy to slip in the package with the decal.

Great idea Jane. Now the problem is that we all agree on it, but none of knows how to make them happen. Surely there would be a way some company that makes the the hand wipes for restaurants that serve bbq could do something like that. Now I guess we would have to find out who makes those and go from there.

There are a lot of companies that will do this however they will want large order commitments to produce the item

Hi, I have noted in another thread that I have just used window cleaner (minus the amonia) on my car and regular vinyl..worked great.

 

[Leg cramps]

im using the xpel and it is sticky without the rapid tac.what the rapid tack does is allow you to move the sticker around a bit after its applied,get any crinkles or bubbles out.you wouldnt just wet the back of the decal with the towelette and expect it to work the same.I got 100 fine mist sprayers here for $30.99....
100- 2ml Mini Fine Mist Sprayers - 2ml Mini Fine Mist Spray by The Chemistry Store.com Inc
I got a gallon of rapid tac for 36 bucks from a local sign supply store so I didnt have to pay shipping.I use a turkey baster to transfer from jug to misting spray bottle.now if you had watched matts instruction video he suggest just 2 sprays a foot from the back of the decal,which I did on my first decal and I would actuall say it wasnt enough,might of went with three sprays to back of decal and three sprays to area of application.

So, what we need is a distributor (hint, hint) who would be willing to make that commitment and then offer the product for sale in smaller quantities to those of us who want/need it.

My question is - do we really need the app fluid? If the decal is sticky enough it should hold on a clean surface.and then the purpose of the app fluid would be to moisten it enough to be able to reposition it like we do a wet application of vinyl. Any thoughts?

I don't think we really need the application fluid. I used a little soapy water and it worked fine.

Ok I can help,,

soak a towlete in the fluid,,, and seal it in your foodsaver,,, or whatever sealer you use in your kitchen,, it will be a clear lil packet but bling it up with your own logo stuff on the outside of the package....
make it as large or small as you desire.

That will work. Great idea. I can take those baggies form the craft store that I send the rhinestones out in, moisten a towelette with fluid and and seal it with my bag sealer. I may get around to trying that this weekend.

My sealer is similar to this one.
