application of emissions decal/label on fender under the bonnet

[RedTriumphTr6@aol.com]

Do any of you know how to best apply the emissions label which has the timing 
and dwell and idle cam adjustment data and diagrams on the driver side inside 
fender?  I bought one replacement and it did not apply smoothly...far too 
many creases and air bubbles remained..  what did I do wrong?  For the life 
of me I could not press out all the wrinkles when I carefully applied over 
the top of the old label.  This is a dry transfer, not a water based decal.   
       Thanks.      Bob Pierson
