From time to time I hope to document the process from start to finish of making something.  I only remembered half way thru this project so I’m only going to document how I assemble the actual banner.   I pick up after …
1) Designing the file in photoshop.
2) Converting the banner to cuttable file.
3) Seperating the file into 3 colors. 
4) Cutting each color of vinyl.
5) “Weeding” each decal (pulling away the ’scrap’ vinyl to show the actual design)
6) Applying transfer tape to all pieces.
7) Measured to find center Horiz/Vert and have sprayed the banner with a soap/water mixture to allow for moving the vinyl around.
8) I’ve applied the first color (black) to the banner. Centered it up and squeegied out the water mixture. After a couple minutes I pull away the transfer tape.
9) After curing for a couple minutes, I apply more soapy water to apply the next color–Blue in this case.  I center up the blue, squeegie out and peel away the tape.  I have split up the blue into more managable sizes rather than a 6 foot section.
10) Next comes the Red, done the same way as the blue.  Water/Squeegie/Peel.
11) After complete, I go over the banner once more with a squeegie and clean off any soapy residue. 
12) Banners are shipped rolled up on a cardboard tube, inside a plastic bag (for you to store it in), inside a box to prevent any damage in transit.
