I can only presume it's vinyl sheet. Should be fairly easy to apply if it is, like wall papering, stick on one corner and brush away from it slowly to prevent creases and bubbles. I might be completely wrong though. :wacko: -WelcomeHW- |

Yes welcome jaclinto. I suspect my experience mounting photographs will help with the camo vinyl. Firstly clean the area you are applying to and then with a clean dry hand check for "clingons" with the edge of you hand (little finger edge) you will be surprised how often this final check finds something. Next line up the longest edge, the shortest edge is easier but it will run out by the time three quarters of the sheet is on. If you've never done this before leave the peel off strip on (folded back) to prevent accidental adhesion. When you are happy the edge is lined up and square using a soft cloth smooth from the centre to the nearest edge to exclude air bubbles. You might find this is easier if a second person slowly pulls the peel off paper back as you do this. Take it slowly and you should be OK. If you do get the odd bubble and the sheet is fully in place , don't try and chase it to the edge, you will make a mess , instead pierce the air bubble with a fine needle and collapse it towards the hole.I have used this technique for sometime and can usually mount a 24"x 20" (photos are still in inches!) print at the first attempt with no more than a +/- 1mm error, but it does take practice. photopro |

If its self adhesive vinyl ie the same stuff as car decals etc then like said give it a clean but then apply soapy water (washing up liquid is fine) to the area you are going to apply the decals / vinyl, then you can slide the stuff about to your hearts content no bubbles no creases etc then just give any excess a wipe off and let dry and IT WILL stick just the same , but you have a neater finished job. cheers MH |
