70% water/30% alcohol. trust.gif
this is what i use on all graphics, stickers, deacls, ect. it makes the adhesive aggressive faster, but still gives you the ability to reposition if you need to. after about 5 minutes, you can safely pull the backing off without any problems. in the summer, i can pull it off as soon as i'm done squeegeeing.

i use a soloution called right-on, i think its similar to rapid tac. or if i'm out of that i use TTS's alcohol/water mixture with a couple drops of dish soap added. i clean the application area with alcohol and water also thumb.gif

i tried rapid tac 2, it was pretty good. takes a little longer to set up than alcohol/water. and costs way more than alcohol/water.

the good part about the alcohol/water is, in the winter i can add a little more alcohol and make it set up faster, or a little less in summer to give me a little more time.

Thanks so much! Put off doing the graphics until Monday! I am putting 2 12" stripes on the hood, roof and tail gate of this Dodge truck! Should look pretty cool thumb.gif! Going to go with TTS's solution!

Rapid tac to do it slow Rapid tac 2 faster quick stick for fastest results and or you can apply this formula to temperature conditions as well. gasp.gif Colder conditions need faster sicking times for those who dont have all day. Quick stick also works when putting vinyl on glass too! Especially if your tired of waiting or need to hurry. You can get these productd delivered to your door by calling banner-cal.





For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:
now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
