Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to apply vinyl decals to glass surfaces:

1. Clean the Glass: Start by thoroughly cleaning the glass surface where you’ll apply the decal. Use a cleaning solution or wipes then dry the area with a lint-free cloth.
2. Prepare the Decal: Gently peel off the backing paper from the decal, taking care not to disturb any intricate parts of the design. If part of your artwork lifts with the backing, rub the paper backing back down against it until it stays stuck to the transfer tape. Make sure you do not touch one part of the artwork with another.
3. Wet the Surface (best for large artwork particularly): Lightly spray the glass with a mixture of water and a drop of dish soap. This will allow you to reposition the decal as needed.
4. Apply the Decal: Carefully position the decal on the glass. Starting from one edge, use a squeegee or credit card to smooth out the decal and eliminate any air bubbles.
5. Remove Transfer Tape: Slowly peel back the transfer tape at a 45-degree angle, ensuring the decal stays in place on the glass.
6. Final Touches: Go over the decal with a microfiber cloth to secure it firmly and remove any remaining air bubbles. You can use a needle to poke a hole into the bubble to allow the air out and rub down again.
7. Allow the decal to set for a few hours before cleaning or touching the area to ensure the adhesive bonds well with the glass surface.
8. Enjoy your newly decorated personalized humidor!
