You just simply put the transfer over the place you want it to be and rub the number on to the paint. use a small smooth object to rub it on. I use one of my wifes small kniting needles.. You can clear coat them if desired.

I'vr done a couple of dry transfer decal jobs.  The key is to get good contact between the decal and the surface of the object to be decaled.  Use a tool with a hard surface, something like a pencil eraser will not work.  And then rub the heck out of it, and then when you are sure you are done rub it some more.  If you lift it up and part of the decal stays on the transfer paper, just put it back in place and rub harder.   You cannot do too much rubbing.

Great advice, I finished the dry transfers and you are right about rubbing them. I do have a tool made for rubbing the transfers in.   I rubbed them many times to make sure they adhered well to the surface. Thank you and everyone else that have so kindly replied to all my posts.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone
