Tip for Air Bubbles
If air bubbles appear after applying the decal, gently press them out using a soft, smooth rubber scraper or squeegee. Work from the center toward the edges to push the trapped air and water out. Take care not to apply too much pressure, as this may damage or shift the decal pattern.
If needed, lightly blot excess water with a soft sponge or lint-free cloth before the piece dries.
