Step 1 - REMOVE OLD DECALS
Completely remove old decals and adhesives. First use a blow dryer or leave your hood in the sun to heat the decals. This will help loosen the adhesive. Then you can peel off the old decals. To remove leftover adhesive on hood, use adhesive remover, which can be purchased at a hardware store. If you cannot find adhesive remover, an oil-based product like WD-40 will also work, but you will need to wash the snowmobile very well with soap and water, then rinse and dry.

Step 2 - CLEAN SURFACE
Remove all dirt, oil, and grease with soapy water. Once its clean, do not touch mounting surface. The oils in your hands will affect adhesion. A clean surface is the most important step in successful graphic application.

Step 3 - APPLY
Note: Some decals are very large and may require two people to make sure that the sticker doesn't fold over and stick to itself when peeling off backing.

Apply a soapy water solution (dish soap works the best) onto the surface to allow the graphics to slide around before final placement. Lightly place the graphic on the surface of the snowmobile. The soapy water solution will help you slide the graphic into position. Take your time; you have a couple of minutes to slide it into the correct position. After that it will take 10-15 minutes to work out the air bubbles. The sticker will lay flat as the soap solution is worked out. Patience is the key factor.

Step 4 - FINISH
Once you are happy with the alignment, use a soft cloth or towel (use a credit card wrapped in the towl for more of a straight edge) to apply pressure to graphic beginning at the center and moving outward to the edges, pressing out fluid and being careful to press out any bubbles. Be sure to apply ample pressure especially at the edges. Allow graphics to sit for 2 hrs. Then re-apply pressure to the graphics, to make sure they are dry and completely secure.
