Zeque Build Glow Powered

Graphics continued...

These few photos show how I layed out the "Team Futaba" to match the "look" of the "Zeque" logo on the left wing. I used the same piece of yellow string from the servo wires and lined it up along the bottom of the Zeque. It was kind of along the hinge line but not really. The magic yellow string taped to the wing with painters tape helped. Using a fine point "Sharpie" I place a few dots along the graphics which were rough cut very square.

BadBrad suggests that I use a squirt bottle with water and a couple of drops of dish soap as a surface prep. I am not good enough and need something much more forgiving...Windex. Squirt the Windex on, spread it around with my hand, line up the graphic along the little dots and press it down in the center. Using a little squeegee I got at the local auto parts store (they come 3-5 to a package of various sizes) I move from the center to the edges. Spray the whole thing with Windex again (it helps release the alignment paper) and re-squeegee and set aside.

After about 10 minutes of sitting, I peel the alignment paper back on itself over the graphic and look for the devious little bubbles...press them out with my finger.

The pictures do not project the superb finish on the model or the 1, 2 and 3 layer graphics.
