Installation Guide
-
Prepare the Surface: Ensure the engine is cool and dry. Remove old decals using a heat gun to soften the adhesive, then clean the cowl surface thoroughly with a marine-grade degreaser and isopropyl alcohol.
-
Test Position: Lay out the new decals and use masking tape to temporarily position them on the cowl. Check alignment against original placement or reference photos.
-
Wet Application: Mix a mild soap-and-water solution in a spray bottle. Lightly spray the cowl surface to allow for repositioning during application.
-
Apply Decal: Peel back a small portion of the decal's backing paper and apply the exposed adhesive to the cowl. Slowly remove the rest of the backing while using a squeegee to smooth the decal from the center outwards.
-
Squeegee Firmly: Apply firm, overlapping strokes with the squeegee to remove all air bubbles and water from underneath the decal.
-
Finalize Edges: Pay special attention to the edges and corners, ensuring they are fully adhered to prevent peeling.
-
Cure Time: Allow the decals to cure for at least 24 hours before exposing the engine to water or extreme temperatures.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
Q: How do I confirm this decal set fits my Mercury engine?
A: This set is for Mercury 9.9HP 2-Stroke (1999-2006) and 4-Stroke (2005-2006) models. Check the Compatible Engine Models table and use our Mercury Serial Number Guide to verify your specific model and year. Ensure the OEM part number (37-12836A00) matches your requirements.
Q: How are these decals different from the original Mercury ones?
A: Our decals are aftermarket replacements designed to meet or exceed OEM specifications. We use high-quality PVC foil, UV-resistant inks, and a protective laminate that often provides enhanced durability and fade resistance compared to original factory decals from that era.
Q: How long will these decals last and how should I care for them?
A: With proper care, the decals should last 5-7 years. To maintain them, always rinse the engine with fresh water after saltwater use. Clean gently with mild soap and water, and consider applying a marine-grade UV protectant annually to maximize service life.
Q: What causes the decals to lift or bubble?
A: Bubbling is usually caused by trapped air during installation, while edge lifting often results from improper surface preparation. Follow the wet application method carefully to minimize bubbles, and ensure the cowl is perfectly clean and free of residue before application.

A: This listing is an aftermarket replacement part (not an OEM component). We build to OEM specifications using comparable-grade materials. Production is done in an ISO9002-certified facility, and each batch is inspected for consistent performance.
