A vinyl cut sticker means that there is no background or clear backing. Only the image is the adhesive part! -These are not Cling-ons. -Please apply only to a clean, dry surface. Below are some instructions on how to apply these stickers: Step 1 Rub the sticker to be sure the transfer tape is properly adhered to the sticker with hand or something rigid like a credit card. Step 2 Clean and dry the desired area. Stickers will stick best to clean smooth surfaces. Step 3 Remove the paper backing slowly making sure the sticker stays adhered to the transparent transfer tape Step 4 Carefully position the sticker to the desired area. Once the sticker sticks it will be nearly impossible to reposition without destroying the sticker. Rub the sticker from one side to the other, eliminating any air bubbles. Step 5 Use a hard edged object like a credit card to make sure the entire sticker is fully adhered to the surface. Step 6 Slowly remove the transfer tape. Making sure no part of the sticker remains on the transfer tape. Step 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 become virtually invisible, once the bubble is gone. That’s it! Your sticker is now worry free. It will last through rain, sleet, snow and gentle washing's. You can remove the sticker from glass surfaces with a razor blade or in most cases a fingernail will get the removal process started.
