-
Clean the Surface: Thoroughly clean the engine cowl with a marine-grade degreaser to remove salt, oil, and grime.

Final Prep: Wipe the surface with isopropyl alcohol (70% minimum) to eliminate any remaining residue and ensure a clean slate for the adhesive.
-
Check Conditions: Apply decals in a dry, non-windy environment with an ambient temperature between 60°F and 80°F (15°C to 27°C). Avoid direct sunlight.
-
Position Decal: Carefully align the pre-cut decal on the cowl. Use reference marks or existing features for accurate placement.
-
Apply Decal: Gradually peel the backing paper away while smoothing the decal from the center outwards.
-
Remove Air Bubbles: Use a plastic squeegee to apply firm, even pressure across the entire decal, working from the center to the edges.
-
Cure Adhesive: Allow 24 hours for the adhesive to fully cure before exposing the engine to water or washing.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
- How do I confirm this decal set fits my engine?
- This set is designed for Mercury 15HP 2-Stroke outboards made between 1999 and 2006. Verify your top cowl part number against the compatible list, which includes 9420T10, 9420A10, and others. For help finding your model details, use the Mercury Serial Number Guide linked above.
- What is the difference between this kit and the original OEM decals?
- This is a high-quality reproduction of the original, which has been discontinued by the manufacturer. It is made with modern, marine-grade PVC vinyl and UV-resistant inks to meet or exceed original specifications for durability and appearance, offering a cost-effective restoration solution.
- How long will these decals last?
- The expected lifespan is 5-7 years in a typical marine environment. The decals are made with Grade 7 UV-resistant materials and a protective laminate to guard against fading, peeling, fuel, and saltwater.
- What is the best way to apply the decals to avoid air bubbles?
- Start by cleaning the surface thoroughly. When applying, peel the backing paper off slowly while using a squeegee to smooth the decal from its center out to the edges. This technique pushes air out and ensures full adhesive contact.
