You need fine scotch pad the entire surface, apply the sticker using a water spray, leave it for a couple of days, a warm environment would be good, to let all the air and moisture out and then lacquer over. This is how mine was done.
Turn On, Tune In, Cop out!
are you referring to water slide ...or sticky backed???

i use grey scotch all over use panel wipe to degrease, then use a tack rag to lift all the fine particals from the panel,personally i put mine on dry using a plastic spreader then you can paint over straight away.
