Use a hair dryer to heat the decal up, then place it in position.

Foil's tricky as its so thin, make sure your tubing is clean and free from any grease.

Cheers Dan, i know my luck the hair dryer will probably melt the foil lol just hope there is enough sticky left on the decal for it too work :daumenhoch:

Don't go too hot, or try heating the tube.
