Have you looked at graphicsexpress.com? They have some really nice packages. Sorry, I can't answer your question directly - I haven't done business with them.

you mix it and put it in a spray bottle. spray the service (not too much) and then spray the decal (not too much either). apply it to the surface and work out all the bubbles or foreign objects that may be underneath. allow it to dry about 24 hrs. dont drive until then. before you do this read the directions, they should give you this info. for installation too. if not, i don't know if i'd try it. the decals may not be compatible with with the soapy water technique.

thanks man, yeah I think Bob white may have a FAQ for me on their site think an old windex spray can will do fine?

DON'T forget that dishsoap removes any finish you may have added above the clearcoat. Sooo, if you overspray, you'll need to re-coat your wax.

You might want to use a clay bar on the area before you apply the decal. Just a suggestion.

A clay bar will remove any impurities - dirt, wax, road particles - that are stuck in the clearcoat. Otherwise, once you apply your decals, those impurities might show through as small bumps. Here's some more info. http://www.properautocare.com/rempainconov.html
