Squeegee for professional application of stickers to the vehicle. This squeegee is specially designed for applying stickers to the vehicle. Made of black, robust plastic that is nevertheless soft and somewhat flexible, it adapts well to the contours of the surface without damaging it. Which stickers is the squeegee suitable for? Basically, a squeegee can always be used when stickers need to be applied cleanly. The larger the sticker, the greater the risk of bubbles or unevenness. But even with small stickers or lettering, this tool is simply a practical helper that makes the work easier and more perfect. Thanks to the high-quality plastic, it is not a problem when sticking wet. After work, the squeegee should only be dried again. Handy format and well thought-out design With its approx. 10 x 7.3 cm, the squeegee is particularly easy to hold. In addition, there are two raised sections on both sides that run across the centre of the squeegee. These are designed in such a way that the fingertips find optimum grip on both sides, so that the squeegee always lies perfectly in the hand, even when working wet. Annoying slipping out of the hand is thus avoided in the best possible way. The corners of the squeegee are of course rounded. This means you can use them for very small stickers without causing damage to the sticker. It also prevents you from hurting yourself while working with it. Do I need a squeegee and how do I use it? For larger projects, we definitely advise using this handy tool. It makes the work easier and the result cleaner. But even if smaller adhesives are applied regularly, you have a suitable tool for this right away. Of course, the squeegee can also be used when applying stickers to other surfaces, not just vehicles, and is therefore useful in other places too. Use dry, with transfer film: Apply the sticker cleanly to the desired location, which must be very well cleaned. Fix the sticker at the upper edge with masking tape, this prevents it from slipping. Then press the sticker with the transfer foil thoroughly into place by using the squeegee, this is best achieved by even stroking movements. Wet application: Wet application is recommended for very large stickers. It is important that the ambient temperature is not below 20 degrees Celsius for the entire duration of the application, as it takes approx. 48 hours for the liquid to dry completely. The substrate must also be able to withstand moisture. If these requirements are met, proceed as follows: -Mix the liquid in a spray bottle as required, adding 2-3 drops of conventional washing-up liquid to one litre of water and mixing thoroughly. -Then spray the underside of the sticker and the surface to be covered evenly with the liquid. This suspends the adhesive effect for a short time and allows the adhesive to be processed and positioned beautifully. When the sticker is perfectly in place, the liquid as well as any air bubbles are wiped out with the squeegee from the centre outwards using even stroking movements. Important Tip: As there is no protective backing film on the surface when applying the sticker wet, the squeegee should either be covered with soft felt on the spreading side or, if that is not at hand at the moment, simply wrapped with kitchen paper. This prevents scratches on the top of the sticker. Our conclusion: Of course, you don't always necessarily need a squeegee, but it's still good to have one when you want to apply new stickers. Once ordered, it lasts a very long time thanks to the robust, high-quality material, and thanks to the small format, it finds a place in every drawer. It's never wrong to have the right tool in the house or truck! Details: - durable material - approx. 10 cm x 7,3 cm - even pressure during use
