Introduction

This guide provides comprehensive instructions for the proper application, care, and removal of your MightySkins vinyl decal for the Ozark Trail 20 oz Tumbler (2016).

Application Instructions

Follow these steps for a smooth and bubble-free application of your MightySkins vinyl decal:

1. Clean the Surface: Ensure your Ozark Trail 20 oz Tumbler (2016) is clean, dry, and free of any dust, oils, or residues. Use a mild cleaner if necessary, and allow it to dry completely.
2. Align the Decal: Carefully peel a small portion of the decal backing. Position the decal over your tumbler, ensuring proper alignment with any features or edges. Do not press down firmly yet.
3. Apply Gradually: Once aligned, slowly peel off the remaining backing while simultaneously pressing the decal onto the tumbler surface. Use your fingers or a soft, flat tool (like a credit card wrapped in cloth) to smooth out the decal from the center outwards, pushing any air bubbles towards the edges.
4. Smooth Out Bubbles: If small bubbles remain, gently press them towards the nearest edge. For stubborn bubbles, you may carefully lift a small section of the decal and reapply, smoothing it down again.

This image illustrates that MightySkins are flexible vinyl decals, not rigid hard cases. It shows a colorful decal partially peeled from a tumbler, highlighting its thin, adhesive nature. This clarifies the product type for users.

Care and Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your MightySkins decal, follow these care guidelines:

• Cleaning: Hand wash your tumbler with the decal applied using mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbing pads, as these can damage the decal's surface.
• Temperature: Avoid exposing the decal to extreme heat, such as prolonged direct sunlight in a hot car or dishwashers with high heat settings, as this may affect the adhesive or material.
• Handling: While durable, avoid sharp objects or excessive friction that could scratch or peel the decal.

Removal Instructions

When you are ready to change your design or remove the decal, follow these simple steps:

1. Start at an Edge: Gently lift a corner or edge of the decal with your fingernail.
2. Peel Slowly: Once you have a small section lifted, slowly and steadily peel the decal away from the tumbler surface.
3. Residue-Free: MightySkins are designed with a patented low-grip air release adhesive that allows for easy removal without leaving sticky residue behind.

Troubleshooting

• Bubbles After Application: If small air bubbles appear after application, gently press them towards the nearest edge with your finger or a soft cloth. For larger bubbles, you may carefully lift the decal section and reapply, smoothing it down.
• Decal Not Sticking: Ensure the tumbler surface was thoroughly cleaned and dry before application. Oils or dirt can prevent proper adhesion.
• Edges Lifting: If edges begin to lift, gently press them back down. Ensure the decal was not stretched excessively during application.
