graphics solution?
Does anyone have a good formula for a solution to spray on the plastics and decals to allow them to be moved while applying? I know you can buy the stuff, but I think it's just water, alcohol, and soap, just don't know the ratios.

Here's something
10% IPA solution (isopropanol or rubbing alcohol). All the large scale graphics applicators use this solution. WIndex works ans so does a 10% soap solution. I tend to stay away from the soap solutions as they tend to pick-up dirt and what not.
After you get the graphics in place, be sure to squeegee out from the middle of the graphic towards the outside edges. This will aloow any air that is trapped to be squeegeed out.
Also be sure to use some type of soft cloth on the edge of whatever you use for a squeegee so that you do not scratch the graphics.
