Dirt Bike Graphics Application Guide

Preparation is Key

Take your time — installation is critical for a clean, lasting finish.

Tools needed: heat gun or hair dryer, Cleaner, 70%+ isopropyl alcohol, clean rags.

Step 1: Remove Old Stickers  
Strip off all previous stickers and glue residue. Use heat if necessary to loosen stubborn adhesive.

Step 2: Clean Surfaces  
Wipe plastics thoroughly with suspension cleaner. For new plastics, remove factory oils with a stronger cleaner before alcohol — this step is critical.

Step 3: Prime with Isopropyl  
Wipe down with isopropyl alcohol. Let dry completely (1–2 hours, up to 4 hours in cold conditions). Ensure no shimmer of oils or residue remains.

Applying the Graphics

Step 4: Align Stickers  
With backing on, line up the sticker. Peel one corner (Point A), press gently, then peel opposite corner (Point B). Adjust as needed — stickers can be repositioned.

Step 5: Smooth from Center  
Run a finger between Point A & B. Smooth outward slowly to remove ridges.

Step 6: Re‑Adjust if Needed  
Peel and reposition before applying heat. Avoid water or soap — it weakens adhesive.

Step 7: Apply Pressure  
Use a clean rag to press from center outward. Shape sticker to plastic and smooth bumps.

Step 8: Use Heat  
Warm gently with a hair dryer or heat gun. Makes material pliable for curves and edges. Do not overstretch holographic or chrome kits — they may lift.

Final Steps

Step 9: Cure Time  
Wait 3–4 days before riding or washing. This ensures glue bonds properly. Minor edge lifting is normal due to temperature or humidity.

Step 10: Seal with Heat  
Reheat entire kit, pressing down edges. Activates glue for maximum adhesion.

Pro Tips

Start with simple pieces before tackling complex shapes.

Trim excess if needed — better too much than too little.

Avoid rushing — “Look Good, Go Slow.”
