Instructions for mount the flags.

Firstly carefully cut around the outer edge of the printed flag, with either sharp sissors or, better still, a sharp scalpel or craft knife.

To mount the flags, cover one of the reverse side of the flag with the white glue (vinyl glue), the two halves will slide around each other while you position them around the pole, move them until you are sure that the 2 flags halves are exactly aligned, at this time pinch the flag firmly together and ensure that there is a snug fit against the flag staff.

For normal flags only: Before the glue is dry , wrap and curl the flag back and forth around a paint brush handle or similar until the desired effect or dynamic shape of the flag is obtained. Then that the glue dries it will be quite rigid and will support its shape. If you are left with a white strip showing around the edges of the flag, fill in the edges using the tip of a suitably coloured felt marker or fine paint brush.

If you are using the dynamic flags all this is not necessary, you only must position them around the staff and be ensure that they are exactly aligned, these flags has a dynamic form, and then pinch the flag firmly together, note that if you are using the flag printed in self adhesive paper and and once meetings the two halves you won't be able to separate them, make sure that are perfectly aligned.

For the battle damaged flags, make the cuts of the damages the most exact possible and then alter them with sharp sissors when the flag is dry one
