AJJ Cornhole’s Cornhole Wraps extend 24”x48”, fit to apply to our plain or painted wood cornhole boards.
This tutorial will show you how to install decals or vinyl cornhole wraps on a set of cornhole boards.
Before you begin applying vinyl wrap, make sure your cornhole boards are unboxed and set in a clean working space. Make sure the surface of your AJJ Cornhole Boards or DIY cornhole boards are free of any dirt and debris.
You will need the following materials in order to install your cornhole wrap:
- Squeegee
- Masking or painter’s tape
- Utility knife or scissors
- Water-based polyurethane
- Paint brush or roller
STEP 1: Unroll your cornhole wraps from their shipping container and lay on a flat surface.
STEP 2: Using masking tape, carefully tape down the bottom and sides of the decal to the cornhole board, as shown.
STEP 3: Pull down the top section, above the tape and carefully remove the backing paper to expose the sticky side.
STEP 4: Using scissors, or your utility knife, remove the entire top section of the backing paper.
STEP 5: Starting just above the tape, where you removed the backing paper, gently press the sticky side down to the cornhole board. Use your squeegee to remove any air bubbles as you work your way up.
STEP 6: After removing all air from underneath the wrap, gently peel away masking on top of the graphic so that the graphic does not lose adhesion to the board. Use your utility knife to carfeully cut out the hole.
STEP 7: Remove the tape and fold back the bottom of the decal. Carefully remove the paper from the bottom and squeegee your way from the middle of the board to the bottom
STEP 8: Using your paint brush or roller, cover the entire board/decal with water-based polyurethane
Repeat this process on your other board.
This has been a tutorial on decal installation, using a dry method. Some people may prefer to learn how to install decals wet, with a decal installation solution.
These installation fluids can often conflict with the pores of the cornhole board, but it is a way to learn how to install vinyl decals.
