Water Slide Decal HELP

[user 135]

I am about ready to apply the waterslide decals to my 1982 Schwinn Sidewinder. The decals are NOS ones purchased on ebay. I have read Pete Hyperformance instructions for application of them. But I am still scared as I have shaky hands and these decals can be hard to replace.

Do these fold/wrinkle easily?

Can they be moved when in position on the frame?

They are not hard at all. Just be cautious with them as they can tear easily. Soak, wait, set in place, remove paper from between decal and frame, smooth with a damp cloth. As long as it is wet you can move it around. Just make sure the area you are moving it to is damp. You have about a minute to get it into position before it starts drying too much and sticking. Good Luck!

FIRST OF ALL PLEASE DO NOT PUT THEM IN WARM WATER :!:

Use temperture water and yes you could move the decal around with no problem until you have them place were you want them :wink:

You could practice on a cheap model airplane. (They still make those, right? :? )
