BUBBLES....
Maybe I put these on when it was too cold, but I still have bubbles under the vinyl decal. Will these go away when it gets hot enough, or do I need to pop them with a needle/etc.

just for the next time u might want to try using a spray bottle with 2 drops of dish soap and some water and spray a light mist on the decal backing so u can move it around and then us a vinyl squeegee and push out all the bubbles and water and then dry with a hair dryer.

Unfortunately, air bubbles do not go away. If you would have put it on "wet" as in teamgreen666's method, remaining moisture bubbles can dissipate. But air stays trapped so get your needle out! Do not use the edge of a razor tho, because as the vinyl sets & changes over time, the slits created by a razor point will open up. Also do not warm it up because that will allow the vinyl to be too soft and could deform the bubble when trying to push out the air. Keep it simple, roll you finger over the bubble from one end to the other poking the needle at the edge of the other end of the bubble. Kinda like getting all the toothpaste out of the tube.
Good look for the JK!
