Hello,

I am in the process of painting the cowling on a 76 Mercury 1500. I was fortunate enough to come across a set of OEM mylar decals that I purchased off ebay. I intend to clear coat over them, but need to ask one question: The adhesive backing is somewhat lacking after sitting on a shelf or in a garage for 30 years - what type of adhesive would you recommend and what would be the preferred way of applying? Just want something not too tacky and something that would not cause undue air bubbles.

Thanks for the help!
