FITTING OF VINYL GRAPHICS

Step 1 The most important part of Graphic Application is PREPARATION!

Ensure that the surface is suitable and clean, using RAPID PREP (30), and if necessary the QUICK RELEASE(Q.R) TOOL to remove any impurities from the surface.

ALL WAX, OIL, SILICONE OR POLISH MUST BE REMOVED BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO APPLY ANY JOB.

Step 2 Lay the Graphics face down exposing the white wax paper backing, peel this back to reveal the 'adhesive side' of the Graphics. Then lightly apply a mist of RAPID TAC (28) from the 4oz bottle or better still from the LE PUMP SPRAY! - this should be applied to the Graphic and the surface to which it is being applied.

Step 3 Lightly position the Graphic in the desired position, checking allignment thoroughly.

Step 4 Using a squeegee, we suggest the AVERY PRO FELT (22), press and work the fluid from underneath the centre of the Graphic to the edge and out from the side using a herringbone pattern of squeeging overlapping strokes, so as not to leave a drop of fluid underneath the surface.

Step 5 After thoroughly squeeging over the complete surface of the premask, take a corner of the premask and roll it back on itself so as to reveal the Graphic.

Step 6 Over squeegee the Graphic with the felt side of the AVERY PRO FELT to leave the decal finger mark free and fully installed.

FITTING OF WINDOW FILM (TINT)

THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF WINDOW TINTING IS PREPARATION!

Always check legal requirements on vehicle windows and safety on double glazed units. Ensure that installation takes place in a warm, still and dust free enviroment. Thoroughly clean the glass with RAPID PREP (30) and NARROW SCRAPER.

Step 1 Spray clear water from your TANGO (35) on the outside of the window. Place the film on the outside of the window and cut it to the approximate size and shape.

Step 2 If the windows are curved (as in car windows) place the TINT the 'wrong way round' on the outside of the window and gently apply heat from a Air gun or Hairdryer, so as to heat shrink the tint to shape.

Step 3 Delaminate the release liner (clear) from the TINT.

TOP TIP Use two pieces of sellotape or masking tape to seperate the TINT from the liner.

Step 4 Spray the inside of the glass with RAPID TAK (28).

Step 5 Place the TINT in position then using the AVERY PRO FELT (22) press and work the fluid from underneath the centre of the  TINT to the edge and out from the side using a herringbone pattern of squeeging overlapping strokes, as not to leave a drop of fluid beneath the surface.

Step 6 Using a hot air gun or hairdryer eliminate all traces of fluid from under the TINT - checking on the 'outside' that all is looking fine.

Step 7 When the TINT has fully dried out trim 2mm from the top edge of the window and seal with clear varnish or nail polish so as to avoid 'peel back'.

WARNING Always be very careful when TINTING a rear window as they often have heating elements on the surface (DO NOT CUT ON THE GLASS!)

Step 8 A job well done... now take yourself off to the pub - but  first remember to call 07860 451090, after all this free advice it's your round!!!

REMOVAL OF VINYL DECALS

Step 1 Apply direct heat from a heat gun or hairdryer.

Step 2 Use the QUICK RELEASE (Q.R) TOOL to remove the graphic without scratching.

Step 3 Use RAPID REMOVE (29) fluid to release adhesive from the surface and wipe with clean lint free cloth.

REMOVAL OF VINYL USING VINYL-OFF

Step 1 Wipe Vinyl-Off onto ONLY the vinyl you want to remove using a pad, sponge, foam brush, paper towel, etc (A little goes a long way)

Step 2 Allow 1-15 minutes dwell time. Don't be surprised when there is no visible evidence of it working. Vinyl-Off penetrates the vinyl and attacks the adhesive behind it, you won't usually see a visible change in the vinyl. (Dwell time varies based on thickness and age)

Step 3 For best results, warm surfaces (80 degree F) immediately before removal. Warm to the touch. Sun warmed on a warm day is perfect! Vinyl-Off is NON-FLAMMABLE and has NO TOXIC FUMES so you may use a heat gun to warm the surface even indoors!

Step 4 Lift an edge and pull. The vinyl will come off in larger pieces because it has been rejuvenated. Most of the adhesive should come off with the vinyl. If it leaves adhesive behind, VINYL-OFF is being too aggresive! use less heat or shorten the dwell time.

Step 5 Remove any remaining adhesive by either re-applying VINYL-OFF or RAPID REMOVER, wipe off.

PLEASE NOTE IT IS ALWAYS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU TEST A SMALL SURFACE - IT SAVES TIME IN THE LONG TERM.

GARMENT MATERIAL

Step 1 Place the material in cutter, material side up (backing/carrier face down)

Step 2 Cut material in mirror image with the blade force set to 100-110gf (Refer to machine manual)

Step 3 Weed away the excess material

Step 4 Place transfer onto garment (adhesive backing face down) and press transfer for 20 seconds at 170 degrees, medium pressure, hot release for Hotflex, 10 seconds 150 degrees, medium pressure, cold release for Glitter, 10 seconds with silicone paper over transfer at 160 degrees, light pressure, cold release for Nylo Cut, 10 seconds, 170 degrees, medium pressure, cold release for Flock

Step 5 Remove/peel the backing/carrier straight away (best to peel when hot)
