Choose Your Spot To Show Your Buckethead!
Pick a spot where everyone can see what a great Buckethead you have! A smooth, dry surface works best- The most traditional places are on any wall, door, or window. If you place your Buckethead on a pebbly, textured or porous surface (i.e. brick or cement walls), you will receive poor results, and the warranty will be void. We also suggest not placing it above fireplaces.
Clean It Before You Stick It!
Use a warm, damp cloth or sponge to clean the wall surface or window and allow it to dry completely. You can remove and replace the Buckethead over and over again, however, once the adhesive collects too much dust, dirt or fibers it will become less effective, and the Buckethead may not stick as well to your surface.
Peel And Stick It!
Depending on the size of your Buckethead, it may be helpful to have two people install it. Try not to let the adhesive come together, or the Buckethead to fold up against itself. It's okay if it does, you can separate it by carefully pulling it apart so you do not ruin the printed pose.
Start at the top of your Buckethead and pull down approximately 2-3" of the backer. By lightly pressing and smoothing, apply the 2-3" exposed adhesive area of your Buckethead to your surface area. Then continue to slowly pull the backer downward in 2-3" increments, smoothing the Buckethead as you go. Once the Buckethead is started, it may be helpful if another person holds the bottom and pulls down slightly giving some tension and keeping it straight and easier to apply.
If there are any bubbles or wrinkles, you can lightly press or smooth them out, or just peel back that area and reapply. Please Note: Pressing too hard will not damage the Buckethead, however, it may cause your hands to gather ink (due to the natural oils on your hands), and it could transfer from your hands onto other surfaces.
Suggestions
If a bubble re-appears over the next day or two, you can remove it by pressing and lightly rubbing it. This may happen occasionally because oil, dirt or dust could be on your surface. If it keeps re-appearing, you may want to move your Buckethead to another area.
Outdoors
With our patented adhesive and pigmented inks, you can place your Buckethead on any outdoor flat surface; however, it may fade after 6-12 months of strong sun exposure.
