CAUTION Always apply the final print to the surface by hand or using a squeegee with a
low friction paper sleeve.
1 Position the final print on the surface. Measure the final print placement relative to
the sides of the substrate.
2 Tape the full leading edge of the final print in the correct position. Two-inch wide
masking tape is recommended for this.
If the final print is less than 50 inches long:
a Lift the final print up from the trailing edge. You can roll the final print up for
easier handling, if desired.
b Strip back some of the backing from the final print holding it away from the
surface with one hand.
c Starting at the leading edge (the taped edge), use your other hand to squeegee
down the front surface of the final print. Use loose, easy motions to avoid
stretching the final print.
d Remove the masking tape when you have finished.
If the final print is more than 50 inches long:
a Using two people, tape the middle of the final print to the surface and then lift it
up from the trailing edge.
b Strip back some of the backing from the final print holding it away from the
surface.
c Apply one half of the final print from its outer edge.
d Strip back some of the backing from the other side of the final print. Again
holding it away from the surface, continue applying the final print from where
you left off.
e Remove the masking tape when you have finished.
