Default Applying NO-Stick Decals

Can anyone recommend a good way to apply decals that dont have the sticky glue thats usually on decals that modelers use ? Is there a way to put glue on the backside before I apply them in the regular way ?

Thanks,
John

Ditto the 3M what is it ..the triple 7 adhesive...or is it 7?

Spray a light coat or two (Dusting) and let it completely dry before putting it on.
Then iron it down w/ warm heat...monocoat iron is fine..just low temp will activate the adhesive giving you a nice job when through.

Cool ! Thanks y'all !

So your saying that I should iron them down rather than just use soapy water or windex and squeegee them down ??
