Abstract: Methods of tracing a lengthwise half of a board sports board and applying a substrate film cutout onto the board having the steps of centering a centerline of a tracing scale onto a center of the board, the tracing scale having an off-centerline on both sides of the centerline; aligning a centerline mark of the film with the off-centerline of the tracing scale; flipping the board over such that the board is on top of the film; tracing a trace outline of half of the board onto the film, such that the half of the trace outline is incrementally larger or smaller than the half of the board; removing a release liner from the trace outline to expose an adhesive in the film; wetting the adhesive with a solution of water and liquid soap; flattening the wetted film onto the board with a spreader; and wiping with a wiping cloth.
