Marble Magnet Instructions  Vinyl Application Instructions (For all vinyl lettering projects)
Your quote is made up of three layers. The top layer is the transparent sticking tape, the actual letters are the middle layer, and the bottom layer is the stiff backing paper. All surfaces must be flat, clean and dry before applying. Step 1: Clean the surface with glass cleaner and a dry cloth. Dirt and dust particles will cause vinyl lettering to bubble. Step 2: Draw horizontal guidelines in the area you wish to apply your lettering. Take your sheet of words and flatten the surface out so there is no rolling up. Step 3: On a flat surface gently but firmly rub over the words to make sure all letters have adhered to the sticking tape. Rub over the top of the sticking tape again, just to make sure the letters are sticking to it.
Step 4: With the quote facing up so that you can see it, begin to slowly peel up the sticking paper, which will grip the letters, and be all in one piece. The letters should stick to the sticking tape. If any of the letters aren't sticking, press them down again with the tape, and rub over them with the edge of a credit card or application squeegee. Step 5: Place the taped letters on the prepared surface, using your guidelines to position them correctly. Firmly "squeegee" the lettering to force the bubbles out with your application squeegee or edge of credit card. Start in the center and work your way out. Be sure you have gone over all areas. Step 6: Gently peel off the transfer tape, leaving the letters in place. Step 7: You are finished!
