stripe install help

Get a spray bottle and put one or two drops of liquid dish soap in it, and then fill it with water (Dawn, Palmolive, etc).

Your sheet metal should be between 50° and 90° F.

Your stickers should also be between 50° and 90° F.

You MUST have a clean surface before you install the stripe - no wax on the paint.

Then spray the soap water solution on the body panel and then place the sticker on. The water will help you be able to place it better.


Once you have it in place, use a flat "paddle" scraper (like used to apply bondo) and start in the center and squeegee the water out.

If you get any bubbles in the stripes after you squeegee the water out with the bondo scraper, use a pin and prick a small hole in the bubble and use the bondo scraper to get the water out and remove the bubble as best you can.

That is how they are installed at the factory.
