Recommendations
Apply to a previously cleaned, smooth, flat surface using isopropyl alcohol. This helps prevent contact with contaminants, oil, grease, dust, or any chemicals that could inhibit the adhesive from bonding. Install immediately after removing the liner (release paper), and press the material against the substrate for optimal adhesive performance.
After application, avoid harsh products and constant friction. For removal, we recommend peeling the material off at a 90° angle in a location away from direct sunlight and with the temperature controlled.
Ideal Storage Conditions
The product must be stored in its original packaging in an environment with a maximum temperature of 30°C and relative humidity of up to 70%, away from sunlight and moisture.
