## How to Choose and Apply Funny Car Decals for Your Vehicle
Selecting and applying the right vinyl decal can add personality to your vehicle without damage. Focus on Oracal 651 vinyl for durability, ensure compatibility with your vehicle surface, and follow proper installation and removal techniques for a flawless look.
## Choosing the Perfect Decal
### Consider Your Vehicle Surface
– **Window Decals:** Use Oracal 651 for glass surfaces; ensure the decal is compatible with tinted windows.
– **Painted Surfaces:** Oracal 651 adheres well but avoid textured or damaged paint.
– **Size & Placement:** Measure your space; stickers should complement the vehicle’s size without overwhelming.
### Pick the Right Design
– **Humor & Style:** Choose funny slogans, puns, or quirky graphics that reflect your personality.
– **Readability:** Opt for clear fonts and contrasting colors for visibility from afar.
– **Durability:** Ensure decals are UV, weather, and scratch resistant for longevity.
### Pro Tip:
Test the decal’s size on paper first by cutting it out and holding it against your vehicle to visualize placement.
## Applying Your Vinyl Decal
### Preparation
– **Clean Surface:** Wash with soap and dry thoroughly—avoid wax or oil.
– **Temperature:** Ideal application temperature is 60-80°F; avoid applying in direct sunlight or cold weather.
### Application Steps
– **Position:** Use masking tape to position the decal and adjust as needed.
– **Apply:** Use a squeegee or credit card to smooth out bubbles from the center outward.
– **Remove Transfer Tape:** Carefully peel away backing, leaving the decal on the surface.
### Pro Tips:
– Work slowly to prevent air bubbles.
– For curves, use a heat gun on low to make the vinyl more flexible.
## Removing Vinyl Decals
– **Warm Up:** Use a heat gun to soften the adhesive.
– **Peel Carefully:** Start at a corner and gently pull back.
– **Adhesive Residue:** Use a mild adhesive remover or rubbing alcohol to clean leftover glue.
### Pro Tip:
Remove decals within 3-5 years for easiest removal and minimal residue.
