improper installation
If a vehicle is not cleaned properly before the vinyl is installed, the vinyl will fail prematurely.  Proper cleaning includes removal of all dirt, grime, wax, and other residues from the surface that the vinyl is to be applied to.  Installing vinyl in temperatures of 55 degrees or less will also cause premature failure.  During the colder months it is imperative that the install be done inside of a heated building, being sure that the vehicle/trailer has had adequate time to warm up or use a hair dryer to heat the surface when the surface is still warm apply sticker once applied to surface still with application tape on heat the sticker and press/rub the sticker to make sure no bubbles and as stuck properly leave to cool and then remove application tape  .  It is also important to allow the installed vinyl to sit in the heated environment for 1-2 hours after installation to ensure proper adhesion.

Washing practices
It is important to take care when washing any vehicle or trailer that has vinyl lettering or graphics.  If you prefer to use automatic car washes, use the touchless washes.  Avoid automatic car washes that uses brushes or anything that may catch or rub the vinyl off.  If you prefer to use a power washer, take care so as to not “blast” the vinyl off.  Try to hold the wand perpendicular to the vehicle and avoid spraying at an angle, especially along the edges of the vinyl.  During the hot summer months, avoid washing the vehicle/trailer when the outside temperature is above 90 degrees.  The hotter temperatures will soften the adhesive on the vinyl making the vinyl more susceptible to lifting/peeling.  It is important to wash your vehicle during the winter months as well.  The chemicals used on the roads to melt ice can damage the vinyl and cause it to fail.  Washing at least once a month will help the longevity of the vinyl.

To Apply

This sticker is made out of outdoor sign vinyl and is made to go on a flattish surface  the outside of a car van or shop window (do not apply to the inside of a window)

the decal / sticker comes in 3 different parts 1 the clear application tape 2 the actual sticker 3 white backing paper.

1. make sure the surface you are applying this decal / sticker to is clean and free of wax and grease car shampoo contains wax so wash car with shampoo then use something to remove the wax (google how to remove car wax )apply heat to surface if too cold then apply sticker  (this can cause the sticker not to stick or peel)

2. place the sticker facing down clear application tape side  on a flat surface peel the white backing paper slowly off the application tape layer (if you peel too fast you may rip the sticker layer) if any bit of the sticker stays on the backing paper place it back down and gently rub the back of the backing paper or the clear tape side (this heat the glue up) and try peeling off the backing paper at a tighter angle again slowly if it does the same again repeat again place the backing paper back down and rub again it may take a few attempts as the application tape is low tack it the sticker is not suppose to stick to it permanently once all the sticker is off the backing paper you can now start applying it to the clean surface of a car van shop window

3.lay the top of the application tape / sticker onto the surface keeping it flat as possible use a bank card or hard card squeegee  go down the sticker slowly until you reach the bottom of the sticker hopefully there will be no bubbles after doing this. now the decal / sticker should be on the window with the application tape still applied

4.now rub your finger over all the sticker or use a hair dryer (be careful not to burn the sticker) this heats the glue up and helps it stick to the surface leave to cool with tape applied once cool now you can peel the application tape of slowly at a tight angle this should leave the sticker applied to the window job done
