Installation can be done dry or wet.
Dry: Peal but do not remove the entire backing, but only a few inches of the center of the backing, somewhat fold back while not creasing the appliqué so that the exposed area can contact the surface and squeegee form the center outwards while progressively removing the backing to prevent bubbles.
Wet: Mix a water/dish soap solution like you would to wash dishes. An old well cleaned spray bottle like on used for Windex or whatever is handy. Spray the application surface just enough to wet it. Peal back most of the backing leaving enough to handle it so you don't get finger prints on the appliqué and like the dry method, squeegee from the center out.

A credit card usually works sell for the squeegee if you don't have one. But do put 1 layer of Scotch tape over the edge of which you will be using to contact the appliqué!

I'm a trained professional and those methods are sound

Down the road....
Dow Oven Cleaner actually can help to part the sticker, it won't likely harm most paint, possibly laquer but not enamels or urethane but I CAN NOT say what the effects on the plastic or clear polycarb will be so I DO NOT recommended it on plastics!
Soaking the plastic or polycarb in warm soapy water should help to release the adhesive. In the automotive industry, we use a heat gun which is much like an industrial strength hair blow dryer that gets very hot. If you do dare to use one, it can get the surface hot enough to burn the paint.

Furthermore, most methods of removal usually do leave some adhesive residue. There are various products to remove it.
Have fun

What is the wet installation supposed to do? Allow for easier removal?
