How to Fit

It’s really important that you follow the fitting instructions closely, as failure to do so can lead to your protectors failing to stay attached to your wheels.

HINTS AND TIPS

1. Before you start:

• Check that your wheels are compatible
• The temperature must be above 5°C
• Thoroughly wash your wheels to remove any grease, oil and dirt
• Make sure your wheels are completely dry
• You’ll need to leave your car for 12 hours without driving after fitting, so leave enough time

2. Wiping the surface:

• Once your wheels are clean and dry, thoroughly wipe the edge of your wheels with the surface cleaner wipe to remove any residue from the detergent used to clean the wheels
• Wipe thoroughly in both directions
• Swap to a clean part of the wipe regularly
• Use only one wipe per wheel
• When finished, the edges of your wheels should be so clean that they squeak as you wipe!
• Save the used wipes in case you need them later
• See fitting instructions for diagrams

3. Fitting the protector:

• Decide where you'd like the clip when the protector is fitted - we find it looks best when aligned with the value cap
• Only remove small bits of the tape backing at once to allow more control when fitting
• Mount the the protector as tightly as possible to the edge of the wheel
• Apply firm pressure in a sliding motion to each area as it is fitted to remove air bubbles
• Once fitted go around the protector once more applying firm pressure in a sliding motion
• See fitting instructions for diagrams

4. Fitting the clip:

• Remove the top from the adhesive and use the end of the cap to pierce the tube
• Replace the nozzle onto the tube
• Apply adhesive inside the clip - 3 dots on each side is enough
• Press the clip into place and hold for at least a minute for the adhesive to cure
• Wipe off any excess adhesive with one of the used surface cleaner wipes
• See fitting instructions for diagrams

5. After fitting:

• Wait 12 hours before driving for the adhesives to cure and the bonds to strengthen
• Once the adhesives have cured, gently check that the protector is attached - a small amount of movement is normal as the foam tape has some give
