Installing decals and stickers can be a challenge. Whether you’re looking to stick them on your football helmet or your car, the worst thing that can happen, aside from the decal ripping, is for you to end up with unsightly bubbles throughout the design.
It takes a steady hand and proper understanding of how to install these decals to ensure that you minimize or eliminate any bubbling that may occur before the decal sets.
Depending on the decal you’re using, these bubbles may not be as noticeable in the long run, but I know if I installed a sticker that was full of air bubbles, it would bother me even if it didn’t bother anyone else.
There are a number of things you can do to help prevent or remove air bubbles that may pop up when installing your decals or stickers. Proper preparation and patients are going to save you a lot of headaches after the fact, so let’s take a look at what you can do to ensure that your decal comes out smooth and perfect the first time.
