Clean surface thoroughly. Carefully remove paper backing, leaving the  vinyl on the transfer tape. Place decals on intended surface. Using a plastic squeegee or credit card, start in the center of design and firmly apply design to surface using overlapping strokes. Carefully begin to remove transfer tape to expose product. If bubbles occur, simply prick the bubble with a needle and smooth.
