For most people it might be easier to start applying the small parts of the Nintendo skin first and working up to the big ones. You will get a better feeling of the application process and will not make any mistakes when you progress applying them.

3. When applying a Nintendo skin, work from the center of your device outside. Simply push all air bubbles that are still there to the outside. The decal is applied correctly when there are absolutely no more bubbles.

4. Although your Nintendo console is now protected against dust and fingerprints your Nintendo skin still can and (of course) will get dirty. You can clean it with a damp cloth.
