DECAL REPLACEMENT
The following procedure involves the use of an open
flame. Perform this procedure in a well-ventilated
area, away from gasoline or other flammable
materials. Be sure the area to be flame treated is
clean and free of gasoline or flammable residue.
Do not flame treat components that are installed on
the vehicle. Remove the component from the vehicle
before flame treating.
The side panels, front and rear fender cabs are plastic
polyethylene material. Therefore, they must be “flame treated”
prior to installing a decal to ensure good adhesion. A bonus of
the flame treating procedure is it can be used to reduce or
eliminate the whitish stress marks that are sometimes left after
a fender or cab is bent, flexed, or damaged.
To Flame Treat The Decal Area:
1. Pass the flame of a propane torch back and forth quickly
over the area where the decal is to be applied until the surface
appears slightly glossy. This should occur after just a few
seconds of flame treating. Do not hold the torch too close to
the surface (5- 7.5 cm. from the flame tip is recommended).
Keep the torch moving to prevent damage.
2. Apply the decal on one edge first. Slowly lay down
remainder of the decal while rubbing lightly over the decal
surface to eliminate any air bubbles during the application.
