Has anyone tryed the wet way with fairy or owt like that

does it affect the adheasion once dry

any help appreciated  :daumenhoch:

puss in boots:
i havent done it wet ... i did it dry with a WARM hairdryer ... just incase it goes wrong .... lol   ;)

Rombloke:
yes.....small drop of fairy liquid in a spray bottle full of water.....list misting direct onto the frame and a mist of the rear of the decal......lay decal on and squeegy out the excess water.....works a treat, and the light misting allows the decal to be moved about slightly.....used this method on the gen1 and my retro mirra/freestyler.....and the decals on these wrap the whole of the down tube.

thats right, a touch of washing up liquid or baby oil with water, appy your decal, use something like a credit card to get rid of the excess water under the sticker & hey presto...good as new... i used to do this on cars everyday when i worked in my dads garage

rad dad:
Thanks alot guys ill give it a try now i know its safe  :daumenhoch:
