Checkmate help.

I have a set of checkers that are from the checkmate package and I need some ideas on the best way to install them. I have an idea of what to do, but I'm sure some you you all have some better ideas. Anything will help.

Happy Motoring,
Kyle

Why, install them on the car, of course!

I've read somewhere that installing them on a warm day, using a small amount of soapy water, works well. The water allows some "float" to the sticker, so you can get better placement and work the wrinkles out.

DO NOT trust me on this, but do a google search on decal or vinyl graphics installation

You can get a copy of some install instructions from Cooper Flags. Check the vendor's directory for a link to their site.
