To make CLEAR/TRANSPARENT decals:
The clear decals are made in the same way as the white
decals with the following exceptions.
1) Use the CLEAR Decal fixative
Let
the first coat (the puddle) remain on the decal for about 20 seconds,
gently moving the puddle around the decal for the first few seconds,
then wait. Using the foam pad removed the excess fluid off and over the
edge of the paper and onto a piece of cardboard, and then discard the
cardboard. This leaves a thick and even coating on the image. Let the
decal dry for at least a few hours, or overnight. A second coat might
not even be necessary.
Applying the decal.
Cut out the image with scissors. Dip in warm water (not
hot). The paper will roll up and then straighten out again.
When the film starts to loosen from the paper, place the
paper on the substrate to be decorated, and slide the paper out from under the
decal.
Work out air bubbles with the decal squeegee and let dry.
It is important to remove all water and air.
DO NOT cut out the decal first and then apply the solution
as the edges of the paper will absorb the liquid, making it impossible
to later
slide the decal off the paper.
