Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best results, start by removing old tape and cleaning the entire rim bed with isopropyl alcohol to remove grease or sealant residue. Ensure the rim is completely dry before beginning. Start your application a few inches past the valve hole and work around the wheel, overlapping the tape at the valve hole by about 4-6 inches for a double-layer seal. Press the tape firmly into the rim contours using a cloth or your thumb. Once applied, cut the tape cleanly and use the tire bead to press down any edges. Avoid using sharp tools that could scratch the rim surface, as this may compromise the airtight seal.
