Papillons Please

Item Description

This adorable die-cut decal has standing Papillon silhouette with a red heart and My Rescued Papillons! in white lettering on left side. Measures 5" Tall x 5.5" Wide. As indicated at top of 1st item photo, the background is not part of the decal and is intended to show how decal will look on car or other window. Second photo shows decal on solid color surface such as black filing cabinet.

Note:  A die-cut decal is the image cut out of a piece of vinyl with no background. Die-cut decals look like they are painted on. Very cool! They are adhesive, so once you put them on they are stuck until you remove them and once removed cannot be used again.

Instructions for putting a die cast decal on desired surface are listed below and on the back of the decal. 

Item Special Note

Shipping cost will be added to purchase. 

Instructions for placing die cast decal:

1.) Clean the area where the decal will be placed. DO NOT USE WINDOW CLEANER! First wash with 50/50 dish soap and water. Rinse and dry with lint free cloth. Then wash again with 50/50 rubbing alcohol and water. Dry with lint fee cloth. Do not use citrus cleaner or any other commercial cleaners as the are designed to remove adhesives and will interfere with the decal's adhesive and your decal will fall off.
2.) The decal will be visible thru the transfer paper. SLOWLY separate and peel the protective backing paper from the transfer paper which carries the graphic. Keep an x-acto knife handy, as your decal may want to stay stuck to the backing paper. In that case, use your knife it to help lift away the edge of the graphic from backing paper, then rub the transfer tape on that area again before continuing on.

3.) Slowly roll the transfer paper with exposed graphic onto the surface and begin to lightly rub down vinyl EVENLY from CENTER, from top to bottom until you reach the end.

This is your big opportunity to avoid bubbles and creases by going SLOWLY and applying EVENLY!!!

4.) Rub down firmly with fingers.

5.) Now use the credit card to slowly but firmly rub graphic onto the surface, so that transfer paper will separate from graphic.

6.) SLOWLY pull away transfer paper at a sharp angle, (because it will want to resist!) It's okay to leave your transfer tape on for a few hours before taking off.

7.) Tiny bubbles will disappear by themselves. Pop any large bubbles with a pin and rub. Warming the vinyl with a hair dryer will help in rubbing out bubbles and creases. Warm vinyl is pliable.

8.) Use left-over piece of backing paper or a soft cloth to shield your vinyl from direct contact with credit card to rub out a bubble or crease.

BUBBLES!

There may be a couple of reasons that cause bubbling. Here are some solutions.
1.) Be sure you have removed the clear transfer tape on top of your decal. It is a low-tack, temporary tape that is supposed to be removed. It will bubble badly and look awful. Your actual decal is under the transfer tape and will look great when you remove the transfer tape.
