S&M Bikes Sharpie Shield Decal

These are die-cut decals, meaning there is no background.  The background colour will be the colour of the surface you place the sticker on (or transparent if you put it on a window). 

If there is a background colour in the picture, it is used only as an example.

Vinyl decals come in 3 pieces:

1. Top layer is a transparent transfer tape.

(Holds your decal or sticker together until it is applied)

2. Middle layer is your actual decal/sticker

(It is sandwiched between the transfer tape and the wax backing)

3. Bottom layer is the waxedpaper backing.

(Protects the adhesive until the decal is ready to be applied)

Application Tips:

1. Do not apply to extremely hot or cold surfaces.

2. Avoid touching the decal’s adhesive backing – oils from your skin will prevent sticking.

3. Before applying decal make sure there are no waxy or oily products on the surface.

Application Instructions:

1. Rub the sticker to ensure the transfer tape is properly adhered to the sticker.

2. Clean and dry the desired area. Stickers will stick best to smooth, clean surfaces.

3. Remove the paper backing slowly, making sure the sticker remains adhered to the transparent transfer tape.

4. Carefully place the sticker on to the desired area.

5. Rub the sticker from one side to the other, removing any air bubbles. Use a flat-edged object such as a credit card to ensure the entire sticker is fully adhered to the surface.

6. Very slowly remove the transfer tape, making sure no part of the sticker remains stuck to the transfer tape.

7. Check for air bubbles. In most cases air bubbles can be worked to the edge of the sticker, but if not, a pin-hole will allow the air out and make it virtually invisible.
