Before applying the sign to any surface, the area must be thoroughly cleaned to remove all grease and oil from the surface. Make sure any cleaner has evaporated from the surface before applying the sign as fumes may affect the adhesive tape. Ensure newly painted surfaces are dry and fully cured.
Measure to the location the sign is to be placed. Mark the location with a pencil.
Turn sign over and remove backing from adhesive tape.
Align the sign with the location previously determined. Firmly push the sign against the surface. The sign is now permanently affixed to the surface and removal may damage both the sign and the surface.
