Vinyl decals versus window wipers, & installing them on boats and prior to car wax application.

Question: Is it OK for my windshield wipers to hit my car window decal?

If your area gets a lot of rain, say an area like Seattle, Washington, it is likely that the water and spray off the road is relatively clean,

Painted Wood Walls

Applying decal stickers on painted wood and walls, and how to remove them from paper backing.

Question:  Can I put decals on painted wood

Generally yes. It depends, of course, on a couple factors.

The first factor is how rough is the wood the paint is on. If the wood is very rough, it would need to be sanded well before painting it. Then you can stick vinyl to it.

The other factor is how long has it been since the board was painted? Assuming the board was relatively smooth, you should wait,
