Recommendations
Apply to a smooth, flat surface that has been cleaned with isopropyl alcohol to prevent contact with contaminants, oils, grease, dust, or any chemicals that may inhibit adhesion. Install immediately after removing the liner (paper), and press the material against the substrate for optimal adhesive performance. After application, avoid harsh products and constant friction. To remove, peel the material back at a 90° angle in a climate-controlled location away from direct sunlight.
