    Decal replacement prep

    I need to replace the decals on the bedside of my truck,(4x4).
    Once I peel off the old ones what should I do?
    Repolish the area then IPA wipe down?
    Thanks

    Re: Decal replacement prep

    Like Klasse Act has stated, use a solvent to remove any adhesive residue first, then polish, then remove any polishing oils with another solvent wipe.

    And a suggestion for installing the decal... Use masking tape as a guide to ensure you get it applied straight.
