Best way to apply carbon vinyl?

[buddy92]

Hi all.

I just went spent $30 on some carbon vinyl to do my door trims.

What's the best way to get it on there 100% perfectly neat? I tried 1 and it come out ok but had a few little crevice marks and small bubbles here and there?

Anyone able to point out some advice please?

use a mixure of water with some soap so that you can move the sticker around and push out all the wrinkles and air bubbles.

Got a huge roll of it from Super Cheap Auto for $26, its a 3M brand one.

a sturdy thumb to squeeze the air bubbles as you apply the vinyl and apparently a hair dryer for curves is what ive heard?

Looks like air bubbles aren't too much of an issue

I use this method when applying liveries to the rally cars i work on, get a credit card or licence and, after wetting the surface with soapy water, apply vinyl, you will be able to move exactly where you want it, and then start from the centre and work your way outwards with the card, pushing the soapy water out.
