HOW TO USE OUR FABRIC TEXTURE FLAG APPLIQUES

WHAT YOU'LL NEED

Aluminum kitchen foil.
Flag appliques.
Gloss acrylic clear for adhesion. We strongly suggest Aqua Gloss for maximum adhesion.

STEP 1

Dip flag applique in water and set aside.

Apply gloss clear acrylic to the kitchen foil where you intend to apply the flag.

STEP 3

Remove any excess water from the back of the applique paper. Excess water will dilute the adhesive.

Apply the applique as you would any other decal. There is no clear film.

Be sure there are no air bubbles under the applique and blot up any excess water/acrylic adhesive.

Allow to dry until applique cannot be moved.

STEP 4

Use a pin to punch holes through the foil at all four corners of the flag. You will use these holes to align the opposite side flag applique.

STEP 5

Mark the back side of the foil to insure the reverse side of the flag is in proper orientation.

Apply acrylic to where the flag will be placed.

STEP 6

Apply reverse side of flag applique using the pin holes for alignment.

Allow to dry thoroughly. We strongly suggest overnight

STEP 7

Using a metal ruler and a sharp hobby knife make several LIGHT passes to cut the flag from the excess foil. NOTE: There is excess white around the flag applique which should be completely cut off.

Flag is now ready to be shaped as desired.
