So I im ordering a vinyl sticker from kilingsdesgin. It has 2 horns on either side of the wording and inbetween horns it says "Black Devil". Thought it would suit the black truck. I read the post about installing these things. How the wet install is better and the dry install is worse etc. I do have the tonneau cover and the vinyl is going overtop of it and down both sides of the truck. So my question is.

Wet or Dry?

With the wet install you use a bottly of warm soapy water if im not mistaken?
Also what other tools are needed. I know a puddy knife or squeege. But is there anything that works better then other?

Thanks

This is the vinyl (blue is my favorite color )

use a mild soap like a teaspoon to a gallon, get bondo scrapers, (this is what i use for tint also...) i get some alignment points marked out on the backing of the stickerw/ a sharpie if its going on a window, in your case i would use a dry erase pen... (bnothing worse than a non centered sticker) douche the whole area with soap water place the sticker move it start in the middle and drag out all the water and bubbles let it sit for a hour...... the glue has to set

then peel the back front backing off, any bubles use a exacto knive put a realy small ***** in the vynyl to get em out, ur done!

 

ya, I put mine on myself. just do what he said and it is pretty easy. I just used a credit card to smooth mine out, and use baby soap and water for the mixture.

 

i've been told to use the green windex. my cousin uses it with tinting windows.

 

that works too just water will work, but it sticks easier w. just water..

 

Thanks for all your help guys. So from what your saying is that it sticks easier with just water?

 

no use the soap, water it will somtimes stick before you want it to

 

deff use soap or green windex.

 

The bondo paddle is the best scraper,just remember to pull your truck inside the night before. Oh,yeah and 2 or 3 beers affects your judgement way more than you think.

 

to add to what peotecoyote said, make sure you let the glue cure at a descent room temp if you can. i'm not sure what the climate is like where you are. but the glue is gonna need a 4-6hrs to cure right.
