Applying transfer stickers

UV-DTF transfer stickers are durable, have a slight 3D texture and stay on smooth bricks permanently. Here is how to apply them neatly:

What you need

  • The transfer stickers and the enclosed test sheet
  • Scissors
  • Tweezers
  • A clean, dry cloth
  • A plastic card (e.g. a credit card) or a squeegee

Step by step

  1. Practise firstEvery order includes a test sheet. Please try applying a sticker on it first – once applied, stickers cannot be removed.
  2. Prepare the brickThe brick must be clean, dry and free of grease. Wipe off fingerprints with a cloth first.
  3. Cut out the motifThe sticker consists of a white carrier film (A) and a clear adhesive film (B). Roughly cut out the single motif with scissors.
  4. Remove the carrier filmSlowly peel off the white A-film. The sticker stays on the clear B-film – make sure all parts lift with it.
  5. PositionCarefully place the B-film with the motif onto the brick using tweezers. Note: the adhesive grips immediately, repositioning is hardly possible.
  6. Press downOnce the position is right, press firmly from the centre outwards with the card – this avoids air bubbles.
  7. Remove the adhesive filmPeel off the B-film slowly at a shallow angle. If a part does not release, lay the film back down and press again.
  8. FinishingFinally press the sticker down lightly once more, especially along the edges. If an item has special features (e.g. motifs that extend beyond the brick), they are described in the item description.

Tips

  • Do not apply to rough or strongly curved surfaces.
  • In cold conditions, warm the brick briefly in your hand first.
  • No sealing required – UV-DTF is waterproof and very durable.
