Also glad for the tip on making the templets did not know how to get those. Use to live in Houston 15 years ago live in Orlando now. Peter T
Here's a thread on RCU that does a very good job of explaining the Windex method. It has a lot of pictures and is very informative. Just remember that this method only works when you are using Monokote and will not work with any other brand of covering. I have used this method of applying graphics like this many times and it's a great way of applying graphics to a plane and on large surfaces like this it works out a lot better than trying to use heat, as when using heat you'll usually wind up with a lot of bubbles stuck under the graphic.

Hope this helps
