3. Installation Instructions

Proper installation is crucial for the longevity and appearance of your fork decals. Follow these steps carefully:

3.1. Required Tools and Materials

• Mild cleaning solution (e.g., isopropyl alcohol or degreaser)
• Clean, lint-free cloths
• Squeegee or soft plastic card
• Heat gun or hairdryer (optional, for stubborn bubbles or curved surfaces)

3.2. Surface Preparation

1. Clean the Fork Surface: Thoroughly clean the area where the decal will be applied. Use a mild cleaning solution to remove all dirt, grease, oil, and wax residues.
2. Dry Completely: Ensure the surface is completely dry before proceeding. Any moisture can prevent proper adhesion.
3. Optimal Temperature: For best results, apply decals in a clean, dust-free environment with an ambient temperature between 60°F and 80°F (15°C and 27°C).

3.3. Decal Application

4. Positioning: Carefully peel a small section of the backing paper from one edge of the decal. Align the decal with the desired position on the fork. Avoid touching the adhesive side with your fingers.
5. Smooth Application: Once aligned, slowly press the decal onto the surface, working from one edge to the other. Use a squeegee or soft plastic card to smooth out the decal, pushing any air bubbles towards the edges.
6. Remove Backing: Gradually peel off the remaining backing paper while continuing to smooth the decal onto the fork. Apply firm, even pressure.
7. Final Adhesion: After the decal is fully applied, go over the entire surface with the squeegee, applying firm pressure to ensure maximum adhesion, especially around edges and curves.
8. Heat Application (Optional): For highly curved surfaces or to remove small, stubborn air bubbles, gently warm the decal with a heat gun or hairdryer on a low setting. Immediately re-squeegee the warmed area to press out air and conform the decal.

4. Care and Maintenance

To maintain the appearance and extend the life of your WP Suspension fork decals, follow these care guidelines:

• Cleaning: Clean decals with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or high-pressure washers directly on the decal edges, as these can cause lifting or damage.
• Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading over time. Store your motorcycle in a shaded area or use a cover when not in use.
• Inspect Regularly: Periodically check the decals for any signs of lifting or damage. Address minor issues promptly to prevent further deterioration.

5. Troubleshooting

Here are solutions for common issues encountered during or after decal application:

• Air Bubbles:
  • Small Bubbles: Puncture with a fine needle and gently press the air out with your thumb or squeegee.
  • Large Bubbles: If encountered during application, carefully lift the decal back to the bubble, re-squeegee, and reapply. If after application, use a needle and heat gun as described in Section 3.3.
• Lifting Edges:
  • Clean the lifted area and gently re-press. A small amount of heat from a hairdryer can help reactivate the adhesive for minor lifts.
  • Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned and dry before initial application.
• Misalignment:
  • If noticed immediately after initial placement, carefully peel back and realign. Once fully adhered, realignment is difficult without damaging the decal.
