    Question DECAL ?

    Hi All, I have applied a rod decal and want to move it to another location on the rod. there is no epoxy applied. Does any one have any input if I could save it after taking it off the rod to reuse it?
    Thanks

    It's all going to come down to how it comes off the rod. If it has been on there a while and in sun/heat it is likely to tear or leave part of the adhesive behind. If it comes off clean you can most likely re-use it. It would probably be a good idea to put rod finish over it in its new location as the adhesive has been used once and may not stay on. The finish will ensure it doesn't go anywhere.

    Might lift up with some gentle heat. If it tears contact the blank seller and they will most likely send you one at no cost.

    I've never been able to salvage a misplaced decal. They always stretch and deform. The clear ones get cloudy.
