You might want to study up on this. You generally do not use any additional adhesive other than what is on the vinyl already when you remove the backing. Apply wet (liberally), squeegee flat.

Scroll down to the Water/Squeegee technique in this racing strip how-to: http://www.americanmuscle.com/lemans...e-install.html

My only recommendations would be to substitute the working fluid with 1 qt water and 3 to 4 drops of detergent mixed in. Use rubber squeegees instead of plastic paint scrapers shown to avoid scratching the vinyl.

I prefer to put on dry when applying 3M Di-Noc.
Prep surface prior with rubbing alcohol or any mild cleaning detergent.
Use heat from a hair dryer for better adhesion and fitment.

ahh .
that's what i was thinking the adhesive spray wasnt needed. had to make sure cause i was ordering some 3m premium cast vinyl and there was an option for the spray and i didn't know whether or not it was mandatory hah
thanks guys! xP
