You may choose to optionally tear off the part you’ve removed if the tape is getting in your way. Pull the paper halfway through your design, leaving the other half concealed by the masking tape. Next you will want to remove the vinyl from the masking tape, by pulling on the vinyl paper more than the tape itself. For this reason, we will carry on with the installation. As per our previous tutorials, you should have marked your vinyl and surface area with a wax pen. You cannot put too much application fluid on your work area- however, it will increase the amount of dry time later in the application. The first step to applying your lettering or graphics is to cover your work area with a mist of application fluid. Now you'll align the mark on your surface with the mark on your graphic. Do not press down too hard, as you do not want to damage your graphic. Next mark your lettering, by marking the top of the application tape with your wax pencil. Keep in mind your boat may not sit level in the water, so leveling your graphic to the ground may not be ideal. Using your space as reference, find the orientation you plan on leveling your graphic to. Using your tape measure, measure out from the center of your intended position and mark the center and outer bounds of your graphic using the wax pencil. Next you will measure your surface and find the center of your intended application. The first step is to understand the height and width of your decal/lettering. However, for most users we do encourage the use of a wax pen and tape measure.
There are multiple ways of measuring, for advanced users you could judge the graphic against the surface using your eyes and best judgement. Once your surface is prepped it is time to start marking your surface so you can apply your lettering.
