Decal replacement?

Last year a friend got Montana to send him another decal for the front cap after his original went belly up. Came to him in a big mailing tube. He took it out and asked me "just what am I to do with this"? He has some age to him and I said the best place would be a sign shop etc. that has a portable rack to make it easier to place. He then went to a shop here in Yuma and asked about it. The guy at the shop's first sentence was "it must be a Montana". Yep, it is said my friend. The shop guy then said "I'll be glad to remove what is left of the original and place the new one, but I will see you again in two years". So he just gave it away. I am now in the process of removing my decals on another brand and when I'm done it will be white with ghost stripes. It will never stripped again!
