first, obviosuly make sure the window is clean and dry this is kinda important so it lasts a while.

Secondly make sure the window is not really cold or really hot as it will make it hard to get the decal to stick in this weather.

Finally. Find where you want to put it and make sure its straight, when applying the decal, pull the back off and leave the front on. Once you start the stick one side slow pull off the rest of the back and start applying the decal. Before removing the back firmly press it all down from the back layer. I've done several decals now and have never had a problem doing it this way

I always spray with soapy water and use a squeegee on the back side of the decal. Almost identical to how tint is applied, never had a problem.. Also with this method if you put it on wrong you can still move it until you start squeegeeing the liquid out from under the decal.

Never put a decal on dry. If you mess up your done. I spray the surface with windex and use a bondo applicator or credit card to squeegee out all the bubbles.When the surface is wet you can pretty much form it to just about any surface. Once it dries, it will stick in the exact way that you left it.
