STEPS
1. CLEAN THE SURFACE
Using rubbing alcohol, wipe down the spray bottle where you wish to apply the label. You'll want to ensure that the area is oil or residue free. Wipe the rubbing alcohol off using either a paper towel or soft cloth. After you clean the surface, be sure to not touch the area where the decal will be placed.
2.PREPARE THE DECAL
Shipping can lead to a slight separation between the transfer tape (clear material over the decal). Before you peel off the backing of the decal, it is recommended to apply pressure to the decal. You can do so by rubbing a squeegee or credit card across the clear transfer tape. This removes any air bubbles that may have formed and makes the decal adhere better to the transfer tape.

3. REMOVE THE BACKING
Lay the decal face down on a flat surface with. Peel the white paper backing off the vinyl decal . If the decal clings to the backing (and it may), slowly replace the paper backing and rub the squeegee over the surface. Then again slowly peel off the backing, exposing the decal adhered to the transfer tape.

4. APPLY THE DECAL TO THE BOTTLE
Lay the bottle on its side. The spray cap will prevent the bottle from rolling around. Position the decal so that it is centered [lengthwise] on the bottle. Slightly bend up the decal at the middle and slowly lower it onto the bottle. We find that placing the center portion onto the bottle first helps to properly align it.
Next, lightly pressing from the middle upward, adhere the top portion of the decal onto the bottle. Repeat the same for the bottom half, working from the center downward.
Once the entire decal is adhered, rub it firmly into place using a squeegee, credit card or, an old hotel room key, or an old Disney pass card. Start from the middle and work outwards to remove any air bubbles.

5. REMOVE THE TRANSFER TAPE
Slowly peel the clear transfer tape off at roughly a 45 degree angle. Be careful not to pull the sticker off the surface. If the decal pulls away from the surface then re-apply the transfer tape and apply additional pressure (rubbing at a 45 degree angle) and then try to peel away after 20 seconds.
