Skin Kit Application Instructions

Please Read, as these basic tips and instructions are fundamental to all devices. The application process is easy but should be done with patience and attention to detail. If you feel nervous, seek out a friend to apply the skin or seek some extra advice from us at Nev Skins.

Step 1 : Work in a well lit space and clean your hands before application. Ensure the device is clean and dry. If you apply a skin kit to a surface that is not clean and dry you may end up with residue patches when removing the skin at a later time. Avoid using solvents or cleaner on the device - a soft cloth is best.

Step 2 : Before application, carefully examine your new skin kit. Check it is the right skin kit for your device. Familiarise yourself with the various panels and where they will fit to your device.

Step 3 : Slowly peel the first vinyl panel you want to apply from its backing. Do not pull or tug at the vinyl panel during application or you run the risk of stretching it out of shape. Try not to let the adhesive backing stick to itself or another surface - but if the vinyl does happen to stick to itself, a quick snap should free it - do not pull or tug on it to free it up.

Step 4 : Pick a starting point for application, perhaps a camera, button cutout or an edge on the device and position your vinyl panel gently over the area you wish to cover. Don't press down to stick the vinyl until you are positive it is in the right position. As long as you don't apply pressure to stick a panel, it can be moved and repositioned until you are sure it looks 'just right' on your device.

Step 5 : When you are sure the panel is in the right position, you can slowly and methodically apply pressure to 'stick' the decal to the device. Apply pressure from the middle and slowly work towards the edges when sticking the panels. If a crease or small bubbles form, lift the skin slowly in that area and reapply. For stubborn edges, run your finger along the side to even out the vinyl.

Rinse and repeat Step 3 - Step 5 until the skin kit is applied to your device.

 

Congratulations! ... You have now transformed an ordinary device into something that looks extraordinary

Handy Installation Tip for iPods and Mobile Phone Skins with Screen Side Strips
Attach the three (3) white sticker labels to the skin as shown in the pictures above.
Then slowly peel the front skin including the screen part area as one piece.
This will make applying the front skin with the thin sides that much easier and simple.
Now carefully align the skin with your iPhone without applying to much pressure.
When happy with the result press the skin (the side strips only) down gently.
Gently peel off the white stickers and remove them together with the inner (screen section) skin.
