Every car owner wants to make his car the best, unlike other cars, attracting the attention of others to it and adding some extraordinary elements to it. The desire to stand out has given rise to a lot of ways among motorists to decorate their vehicle and modify its appearance - from complex tuning to intricate airbrushing. All this costs a lot of money, but if your dream is to decorate your car, you can do it with less cost by using special decals on the car body.
Instructions
Step 1
You can buy special stickers for cars in specialized stores, and the technology of their gluing resembles the technology of applying a tint film to the glass of a car.
Step 2
To stick the decal to your car, you need a soft cloth, a sharp utility knife, a rubber scraper, a spray bottle of water with a small amount of detergent added, and a hair dryer, which is required if you are going to stick a large decal. If you have chosen a sticker that is more than half a meter in length or width, ask another person to help you apply it.
Step 3
Before applying an image to the machine, wash it thoroughly and dry it with a soft cloth. After that, wipe the place of the hood where the image will be applied with white spirit to degrease and remove chemical contaminants. In order for the sticker to be applied successfully, the air temperature when pasting the car must be at least five degrees Celsius.
Step 4
Mark on the hood where the top corners of the decal will be to orient and apply it correctly and symmetrically. Use a marker to mark the desired points on the hood and align them with the upper corners of the sticker, applying it as evenly and accurately as possible, just beforehand simply attaching the sticker to the hood without removing the backing to see if you like its location.
Step 5
After determining the exact location of the decal, remove the protective backing and spray with water from a spray bottle the hood of the car and the adhesive surface of the decal. Apply the decal to the car and then correct its position - thanks to the water, the decal will easily move along the surface of the hood.
Step 6
Smooth down the decal to eliminate air bubbles. Then take a rubber or felt trowel and iron the decal carefully from center to edge. Heat the sticker while gluing with hot air from a hair dryer.
Step 7
On unevenness in the machine body, heat the decal and stretch it, then roll it with a trowel.
Warm up the glued sticker again and dry it with a hairdryer and leave for 15 minutes. Remove the mounting tape by gently pulling on the edge.
Step 8
Spray the decal with water from a spray bottle and smooth again to get rid of any remaining air bubbles. Wipe the car with a clean soft cloth and leave it in a dry and warm place overnight.
