hash stripe with extra bubbles
Hello Guys,
I decided to put a hash stripe on my car as always it was not perfect some bubbles formation esp on the first attempt on the drivers side. Any one who experience the same when installing?What is the remedy? Yours truly, Rafa

Hard to say once it's already applied.
I have used Rapid Tac for all vinyl installations. Allows for movement. I'd dig up a link or you can just google it. If the adhesive has already set (usually does instantly) than its scrap material. Unfortunately, not much can be done to save it. |

Yup. Rapid Tac or soap+water solution depending on what it is. Just redo it since the front hash is crooked anyway

I used soapy water too but only a few bubbles on it. My friend told me that the sun exposure might help to get rid of the bubbles. I really digging the looks right now may be I just wait for a few days and have it painted later..

Needle hole to let the air out of the bubble then probably heater to shrink.
