How to Apply Adhesive Helmet Stripes to Guardian Caps – Step-by-Step Guide

1. Apply Guardian Cap to football helmet.
2. Each helmet stripe is labeled front to back. Begin with the front portion of the stripe, and carefully peel it off the decal sheet, avoiding wrinkles and keeping fingers off the adhesive. Pro Tip: Use a hairdryer on a low setting to gently warm the stripe for a smoother application.
3. Position the stripe at the front of the cap, aligning it with the middle seam of the cap.
4. Gently press the center of the stripe down first, working outwards towards the edges using your thumbs or a decal applicator squeegee.
5. Work in small sections, pressing the stripe down gradually from the middle outwards. This helps avoid air bubbles and ensures a smooth application. Move from the front of the cap toward the back with each section as you apply the stripe.
6. Once all stripe sections are applied, use a hairdryer on a low setting to gently warm the stripe and smooth out the decals to strengthen adhesion to the cap surface.
7. Final Touches & Care Tips
• Double-check all edges to ensure they are firmly pressed down.
• Allow the cap to sit for several hours before using it to ensure the stripe has adhered properly.
• Avoid excessive heat, such as storing helmets in hot cars, as it can weaken the adhesive.



By following these steps, your Guardian Caps will look sharp and professional with lasting durability, ensuring that your team stands out on the field!
