Looking to finally apply my NOS Sunset Rider's side art tomorrow, and wanted some tips on the best way to do it. I've been searching the restoration section of the forums, but everything is so scattered and doesn't apply to my case. Here are the basics of what I need to do.
I currently have 18 year old artwork that through some way, probably age and being bent, have become a bit detached from the paper it's on in a few places. This leads me to believe that the artwork will be poor adhesion wise in some areas when I stick it on. I'm thinking I'll need the help of a spray on adhesive, though I don't know with what or where to start. The artwork is going on unpainted particle board, like the previous artwork that was taken off. (It seemed fine and rather adhesive itself) I'm a beginner at this stuff so I'm not sure if I should paint/sand the wood before I start or not. Also unsure of how the soap method works that has been suggested to me.
Any tips or links to relevant topics would be very appreciated. Thanks.
