Title: Questions on adhesive, vinyl decals Post by: cav96 some day on October 15, 2007, 07:57:45 pm Howdy,
1) What adhesive do you recommend for attaching the metal faceplate to the coin door on a Cavalier 96? 2) How do you apply vinyl decals? 3) How long after painting do you wait before applying decals? Thanks!

some use windex on the machine first which allows the vinyle to be moved around a bit, I just tape the backing material on the machine with tape and positiion where you want it then pull of the facing material and slowly apply the vinyl and use one of those little scraper tools or credit card. Then remove the backing... if you use the windex on it first, still allows a little movememt then squeegee out the moisture and let it dry. Hope this helps. I'm sure there are more and better tips out there from members or on google Practice makes perfect Title: Re: Questions on adhesive, vinyl decals Post by: cav96 some day on October 17, 2007, 12:05:33 pm Thanks!
