I had a similar experience applying decals (unsuccessfully) on a bombadil frame. Especially the seat-tube decal, which I effed up twice. I finally got it successfully after talking to Jay about it.
Also, I was having trouble lining up the decal with much confidence, because when the top-sheet is still on the decal, you can't see the actual decal very well. So what I did was to measure the decal (image) cross-wise, and mark a center-line on the top-sheet with a pen before peeling away the backing and aligning the decal for final commitment/adhesion. It definitely helped a bit. On Jan 13, 11:53 pm, Ron MH <visio...@gmail.com> wrote: > Jay Ritchey at Rivendell has just posted a YouTube video on how to > apply bike decals.
