Tips for applying Wall Vinyl Decal Stickers to textured wall

I had the privilege of applying a collection of Wall Stickers for a local customer this past weekend.  We are in the middle of a real South Dakota winter here right now.  Because of this, the wind was blowing like crazy and the temperatures were around 10 degrees!  This makes any wall tend to be on the cold side, even if it is in the inside of a house. 

So we had 2 issues that affected how easy the Wall Stickers were to apply - 1) surface temperatures plus 2) the walls were textured.  Both of these issues made application a little more difficult.  So here is how we made the application a little easier:

We used a hair blow dryer and worked in strips.
First we did the measuring, taped the design to the wall, then peeled the backing off.  The next and final step, taking off the top layer of transfer tape, is the most tricky.  So we used a hair blower dryer to heat the surface with the decal/transfer tape applied to it.  A strip at a time was warmed up, squeegeed real well, then that strip of transfer tape was carefully removed.

The hairblow dryer did 2 things: heated the surface for proper application and made the sticker soft so it adhered to the texture better.  Do NOT consider using a heat gun in place of the hairblow dryer - that high of heat would actually curl and/or melt your stickers.
