Hey fad2blk, i really need your help. i started hte stripes last night and did get the whole hood done, but there were bubbles galore. I managed to fix about 90% of them by smoothing them out. Some of them were too towards the middle of the stripe to push out, so what i did was prick the bubbles with a needle to let the water out. this has been working so far but is taking a very long time. do u have any other suggestions for getting htem out and for when i do the roof and trunk stripes. any help would be great.

The only thing I could suggest to just start in the middle of the stripes when pushing the air bubbles out. I also had to fix a couple of air bubbles as well, and used the tip of a razor blade to do so. Sorry I couldn't be any more of a help on this. It just takes a long time to get it right.

your supposed to let them dry out in the sun for a little while, then the ones that are left prick the outermost area with a needle. Then with your thumb roll it toward the pin hole. If I still have the directions Ill email them to you. I dont know what stripes you have but you have to be careful if its a thinner form of vinyl youll stretch the bubble by pressing to hard.
