INSTRUCTIONS FOR MINI COOPER WET APPLICATION BOOT/BONNET STRIPING

vinyl striping is the highest quality available.


1. Prepare the surface. Application surface must be cleaned of all wax, oil and grease.
2. Position striping as a test fit, being careful not to stretch the vinyl.
3. Prepare a soapy solution using 4-5 drops of dish soap to 1 quart of water. Do not add too much soap, as
this will prevent proper adhesion. Position striping and remove release liner exposing adhesive.
4. Wet the back of the exposed striping and the application surface thoroughly. Press striping onto the
application surface removing some of the solution.
5. Position the stripes where you want them. Take a step back to eye up the alignment. Re-position as
necessary using measurements from reference points on the MINI (i.e. the MINI logo or washer jets)
6. Once properly aligned, go over entire stripe with a soft cloth and squeegee to ensure bond and that no air
bubbles are present.
7. Check your work the next day. If you find air bubbles, pierce them with a pin and gently work the air out
of the area with your squeegee.

8. To ensure a permanent bonding, allow at least 72 hours in direct sunlight before washing or waxing.
9. Follow the same instructions when applying the stripes to the boot.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR BORDER ACCENT STRIPING
vinyl accent striping is better than printed striping because it resists fading and discoloration
much better than graphic striping. The accent striping has not been attached. Better adhesion is attained by installing
them after the base stripe has been applied.
1. Apply the accent stripes over the existing stripe for best adhesion. Application surface must be cleaned of
all wax, oil and grease.
2. Remove release liner exposing adhesive.
3. Position striping, being careful not to stretch the vinyl.
4. Press striping onto the application surface, then go over entire stripe with a soft cloth or squeegee to ensure
bond.
5. Carefully remove the clear pre-mask by pulling parallel with the stripe.
6.

To ensure a permanent bonding, allow at least 72 hours in direct sunlight before washing or waxing.
