STEP 1: PREP
-
Clean the rear badge area thoroughly using warm soapy water or an alcohol-based cleaner to remove dirt, wax, and grease.
-
Dry the area completely with a clean microfibre cloth.
STEP 2: APPLICATION
-
Peel the raised badge overlay from its backing carefully.
-
Align the overlay with the VW badge, using the contours of the emblem as your guide.
-
Lightly press the overlay into place, starting from the center and working outward to avoid air bubbles.
-
Once aligned, apply firm, even pressure across the entire overlay to ensure full adhesion.
STEP 3: FINISHING TOUCHES
-
Slowly remove any transfer tape if included, ensuring the overlay stays in place.
-
Lightly heat the overlay with a heat gun or hair dryer (low setting) to improve adhesion, especially on edges and curves.
-
Press down firmly along the edges to secure the overlay.
-
Avoid washing the vehicle or exposing the badge to heavy rain for 24 hours to allow the adhesive to cure.
