Compass Sticker Afrikaans

Decorative High-Quality vinyl sticker

Water and UV resistant

Must be applied to a clean, dry and smooth surface.

Made with high-quality vinyl and not printed, thus will last much longer.

There are multiple ways to apply vinyl stickers depending on the size of the sticker and the surface you want to adhere the sticker to.

Dry Method recommended for smaller stickers, takes less time, but the sticker will adhere immediately.

Wet Method recommended for medium to large stickers as the sticker does not adhere immediately and can still be moved if desired, but it does take more time and patience. The water acts as a barrier between the sticker and the surface; thus, the water needs to be dried or squeegeed out before the sticker will adhere to the surface.

Basic Instructions:

Step 1: CLEAN/PREP SURFACE

Dry Method: Wipe the surface you are applying the sticker to with rubbing alcohol/spirits and allow to dry before application.

Wet Method: Wipe the surface you are applying the sticker to with rubbing alcohol/spirits and allow to dry before application. Applying a small amount of clean water or some dish soap with a spray bottle may also be used if this method is preferred and if your surface allows some water.

Step 2: PEEL

Use a squeegee/plastic ruler/old credit card to rub over the whole sticker, this is to ensure that the vinyl sticker adheres to the application film. Then carefully peel off the white backing paper. It is sometimes easier to peel the backing paper from the sticker when the sticker is facing down and away from you. Go slow. If some parts of the sticker do not stay on the application film, rub a little more on those areas with your finger or squeegee/plastic ruler/old credit card. The goal is that the sticker should completely stay left of the application film.

Step 3: APPLY

Dry Method: Place one side of your sticker on the surface while holding the rest away. Use a squeegee/plastic ruler/credit card to rub and smooth the sticker onto the surface.

Wet Method: Applying a small amount of clean water or some dish soap with a spray bottle may also be used if this method is preferred and if your surface allows some water. By using water or dish soap, you allow the sticker to be more movable, and the sticker will not adhere right away. More squeegeeing will be required to remove the water and soapy water before the sticker will be able to adhere to your chosen surface.

Step 4: REMOVE

Dry Method: Slowly peel the application film at a 45-degree angle. Only your sticker should remain.

Wet Method: When all the water has been squeegeed out, slowly peel off the application film. If some parts are not adhering to the surface, the surface may still be too wet and more time to dry is needed. A hair dryer can be used to make sure it's not too hot or too close, just enough to dry the water.
