[BaadAssGremlins] Re: 73 Gremlin X stripe kits

["bldfw" <bldfw@xxxxxxxxx>]

Gary,

I don't know what your plans might be but I wouldn't recommend trying 
to apply it directy to the painted surface.  I applied woodgrain 
vinyl siding on my '72 Olds wagon with a slightly soapy water spray 
per directions and usual practices.  The water allows for the vinyl 
to be easily moved around for positioning before squeegying out the 
water.  When the water drys, it sucks right down to the surface and 
stays for good.

As for positioning, it's pretty much going to be an eyeball thing 
because really you don't want anything on the painted surface that 
could possibly get under the vinyl as the vinyl surface will magnify 
anything that finds it's way underneath.

If you need more insight, just let me know.  Be glad to share!
