Tools
required: masking
tape, scissors, squeegee, lint-free cloth, TFX® CLEANER, ruler.
Application
temperature should
be above 50° F (13° C). If extremely cold, move to an
enclosed area and allow the surface temperature to warm. If extremely
hot, move to a shaded area.
Please refer to TFX Pro System for specific temperature recommendations. |

Step
1
Clean the surface with TFX® CLEANER or a few drops of grease-cutting
liquid detergent in water (do not use a petroleum base cleaner).
Rinse clean with fresh water then dry with a lint-free cloth.
Wiping surface with alcohol will also help remove any contamination
and enhance the adhesion process.
Please refer to TFX Pro System for additional cleaning procedures. |

Step
2
Put a piece of masking tape on each end of your vinyl transfer in
the area where you plan to apply it and anchor each end to the application
surface with masking tape. |
 |
Step
3
Estimate the center of your vinyl transfer and place two vertical
lengths of masking tape to secure the vinyl transfer and create
a center hinge as shown in the illustration. This step allows you
to apply half of the vinyl transfer at a time. |
 |
Step
4
Remove the masking tape anchor from one end of your vinyl transfer
and SLOWLY peel the release liner away towards the center masking
hinge. Be careful not to touch the adhesive side of the vinyl transfer.
Use scissors to cut away the excess release liner and discard. |
 |
Step
5
Hold your vinyl transfer by the application tape, careful not to
touch the vinyl adhesive to the application surface until you are
ready to squeegee. Beginning at the center hinge, make easy overlapping,
pushing strokes with your squeegee. Remove the center hinge tape
and slowly peel the remaining release liner away. Squeegee the other
half of the vinyl transfer, working from the center to the edges. |
 |
Step
6
To remove the application tape, peel SLOWLY at a sharp (180°)
angle. If the vinyl appears to be lifting, gently push the application
tape in the opposite direction from which you were pulling and
resqueegee that area. If after removing the application tape,
air bubbles are apparent, puncture the vinyl with a pin or needle
(DO NOT USE a knife or razor blade) and squeegee out the air towards
the puncture.
Please refer to TFX Pro System for additional application procedures. |
| Wet
Application Method: Spraying
POSITION PERFECT onto your application surface will delay the adhesive
activation between the bonding surface and vinyl transfer, resulting
in a bubble-free, wrinkle-free application. CAUTION: Wet application may delay the immediate removal of
the application tape. A waiting period of up to 30 minutes may be
necessary. |
