4-4 Applying Large Materials
As the size of the material to be applied increases, it will become increasingly difficult to keep the entire material from
slipping during application and to prevent air bubbles from becoming trapped between the material and application
surface.
Spray the application surface with detergent-containing water to allow you to move and place the material in the
desired location, and to decrease the likelihood of bubbles becoming trapped between the application surface and
material.
Procedure
➊
Prepare the cut material and tape the material from the top with application tape.
➋
Remove any dust and grease from the applica-
tion surface.
Use a commercially available spray bottle to lib-
erally spray the application surface with water
containing 2 to 3 drops of a neutral detergent.
➌
Apply the material to the application surface.
Adjust the material location and angle.
➍
Use a commercially available squeegee or the
flat part of a ruler to remove all remaining mois-
ture.
➎
Once all water has evaporated, slowly peel off
the application tape.
