  • detailing after market decals info

    hi guys,

    okay i tried explaining things to a buddy with after market decals etc...

    but i would just like some of you to chime in on this so he can see for himself.

    how long should you wait to wax your car after getting aftermarket decals done?

    is it smart to go over them using the PC?

    or should they be avoided totally especially along the edges?

    i know factory decals are cured and what not, so will the edges peel up on after market decals if waxed too soon with a PC?

    cheers

    THANK YOU

    After watching Mikes videos, he is delicate even just washing over them.

        I waxed my aftermarket decals about 3 weeks after applying them. I always go over them by hand, and a little more gentle than the rest of the car. My graphics are rather wide (they're the Nismo package for those that are familiar with them), so I really only have to worry about the very ends peeling. I treat them with care whenever working around them, and 6 months later they are holding up just fine. That's my two cents on the issue.
