How to apply a vinyl windshield decal Posted by: vsvenson
Video duration: 98 seconds Here's a DIY for applying a vinyl windshield banner to a car. This happens to be the rear hatch of a 924, but the idea is the same for a windshield. First, make sure the glass is clean, then, with masking tape and the release liner still on, put the graphic where it should be. Use the masking tape like a hinge, use a little lubricant, and away you go! |
