The low dot on the right was placed 2" from the edge of the fin.
I've learned with Estes decals - they are thin! On the plus side, when dry they really hug the surface.
TIP: Where decals are on both sides of a fin, set one side and let dry. Come back, then set the other side. Too many times my fingers have lifted and moved that (not fully dried) decal on the other side and lifted it.
I aligned the other dot strip by sighting down the leading edge of the fin.
The lower fins get a single dot on both sides.
To make sure of the position, I made a cardstock template and punched a hole to line up0 and position the decal.
Here's the template flipped to align the dot decal on the other side of the fin.
Look close and you can see the dot in the punched hole.
I don't normally add the Estes logo. You are supplied with two Estes logos, one white and one orange on a white background.
I went with the white decal, it wasn't so bright.
