4 Steps in Applying Boat Numbers

Step 1

Clean the surface with mild soapy water and a paper towel.  Cleaning the surface allows for a better stick on the boat.

Step 2

Soak the surface again with mild soapy water and leave wet.  Slowly remove the release liner and spray the adhesive side of the decal.  This allows for a wet application.

Step 3

With both surfaces still wet, align your numbers into the position you want them in.  The wet application makes it easier for your to move it around.  Once you put it down, when not using the wet application method, the numbers will be harder to peel back and reapply (wet application method recommended).  When they are in position, take the squeegee and in a firm motion push the water out from under.  The application is fairly simple.  I recommend that you go from top to bottom, I find it is easier that way.

Step 4

Finally, spray the numbers to moisten the masking paper.  Wait about 3 minutes before pulling off the masking paper.  Now you are ready to peel off the paper.  Make sure you go slowly and at a sharp angle.  Remember if the letters start peeling up when removing the masking paper, just use the squeegee again and apply it.
