Graphic removal
1. Hold a hair dryer approximately 1.5
inches above the graphic 1.
2. Apply heat to one corner of the graphic.
3. Slowly peel off the heated portion of the
graphic and continue working until you
reach the opposite corner and the entire
graphic is removed.
4. After the graphic is removed, clean the
entire bow area with isopropyl alcohol
to remove any residual adhesive.
Graphic installation
1. Mix 1 tablespoon of liquid detergent
and water in a 1-quart spray bottle.
2. Remove the backing from the new
graphic.
3. Spray the soap and water mixture onto
both sides of the graphic, and also onto
the hull area where the graphic will be
installed.
NOTE:
Spraying the front of the graphic with the
soap and water mixture will protect it from
being scratched during installation.
4. Align the graphic onto the fitting area of
the hull and position it with a squeegee.
NOTE:
Be sure to remove any air bubbles from the
graphic with the squeegee. Work from the
top of the graphic down and slide the
squeegee outwards from the graphic's cen-
ter line.
5. Allow the graphic to dry before waxing
or using the water vehicle.
