Finally a “true air brushed flame” graphic for you car, for years
graphic manufactures have been assimilating air brushed art on their
computers only to achieve very generic looking imitations of the
real thing. This graphic has been beautifully air brushed by “Jaymz
Air Studios of Florida” and has been enhanced and replicated with
all its true values by American Car Crafts design studio to bring to
you a truly awesome air brushed flame graphic specifically designed
for your Camaro. The graphic has been digitally printed and
laminated using the finest vehicle wrap technologies and has a 7-10
year exterior life. Simply wash and wax with the rest of your car
for years of enjoyment.
You will need:
Spray bottle
Household snap knife
Lint fee cloth or paper towels (Bounty)
Wax removing cleaning agent
-
Prepare a solution of
2-3 drops of dish soap or baby shampoo and fill the bottle with
water. Shake to mix. NOTE: You must work with very clean hands.
-
Begin by preparing
the entire door and partial fender area by first washing with
soap and water. Then using a wax and silicone remover. These
cleaning agents can be found at your local auto parts store,
look for 3M wax and silicone remover or a spray can of bug and
tar remover. Either one of these will work well.
-
Once surface area has
been treated wipe off any remaining residue with a clean lint
free cloth or Bounty paper towel.
-
Your Camaro Graphic
has been precut to fit into position perfectly and will require
only minor trimming. For this application we are going to use
the body of the car as a springboard to flip the graphic panel
into position. First you must clean the non-adhesive side of
your graphic by misting your water solution onto your cloth or
paper towel then wiping the graphic free of any dirt or dust
particles.
-
Spray and saturate
the entire side of your car with your soap and water solution.
NOTE: You will know if you have an adequate solution by looking
to see if the solution sheets and does not bead. If beading
occurs add another drop of soap to your solution and spray
again.
-
Once the entire car
is saturated place the clean graphic print side to the car and
paper side facing you so that the car and water hold the graphic
above your placement area and quickly remove the paper liner
from one side to the other as you spray and saturate just the
adhesive. Be careful not to get the paper to wet as it has a
tendency to separate and stick to the graphic. If this happens
finish removing liner and spray your water solution to the parts
that have stuck to rinse them away.
-
Grab hold of the
graphic at the far left and right bottom edge and flip it print
side out facing you and slide into position. It will fit just
center of the vent opening overlapping its edge slightly and
just about 1/16” from the far edge of the door. If your graphic
seams to get stuck simply lift and spray more solution so that
it is wet and slippery enough to allow you to slide it into
position. Once you are satisfied with its position set the
graphic using the squeegee (provided) by sliding the squeegee
from left to right at the very center of the graphic, down the
entire length of the graphic. Then from the center upwards and
downwards until all the water solution has been squeezed out.
Making sure not to leave any water or air pockets as you go. If
an air or water pocket does become trapped you can release it by
poking a pinhole with your snap knife and pressing the bubbles
flat towards the hole.
-
Once you have
successfully completed mounting your new graphic trim off the
excess graphic from the vent edge and door gap by sliding your
sharp snap knife down the edge of the car being careful not to
mar the paint.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE:
Allow 24 hours
before washing. Never use a car wash with brushes.
DO wash your graphics with plain soap and water or any car wash
soap. Rinse thoroughly.
DO keep high-pressure nozzles at least 1 ½ feet from the edge of the
graphic. High-pressure spray may cause the edge of the graphic to
peel.
DON’T use any aromatic solvents such as acetone, paint thinner, and
lacquer thinner on your graphics. Any solvent may soften or smear
colors.
DON’T overcoat the graphics with clear paint.
DON’T let gasoline drip or stay on graphics for any length of time.
If a spill occurs, wipe off and rinse with water immediately. |
