I may have just lucked out, maybe not using water was the key... amazed that there wasn’t a single bubble beneath an applique with as much surface area as this I opened the company info packet to sit down and read it. The page titled "Why do our appliques stand out?" states "Release liner is applied by a machine allowing for near to no air bubbles during application", that may just be true but I will never use water again when installing an applique..
