Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity and effectiveness of the TW700 weights, follow these best practices:
- Surface Prep: Clean the application area on the rim thoroughly using a non-residue degreaser. Moisture, brake dust, or wax will prevent the adhesive from bonding correctly.
- Temperature Consideration: Apply weights in an environment above 15 degrees Celsius (60 degrees Fahrenheit) to ensure the adhesive reaches its full tack strength.
- Application: Peel the backing paper carefully. Press firmly across the entire length of the weight for at least 15 seconds to activate the pressure-sensitive adhesive.
- Compatibility: These weights are compatible with most standard steel and aluminum alloy wheels. For highly textured or powder-coated surfaces, verify adhesion strength after mounting.
- Storage: Store strips in a cool, dry place to prevent the adhesive from degrading over time.
