Troubleshooting
Trim not adhering properly
Ensure the application surface was thoroughly cleaned and dried. Reapply pressure to the trim. If adhesion is still poor, the adhesive may be compromised; consider using a high-quality automotive-grade double-sided tape for reapplication.
Trim appears to be the wrong size or shape
Double-check that the product is indeed for the Skoda YETI II FL 14. Confirm the trim was aligned correctly before applying. Small adjustments might be possible immediately after application, but once adhered firmly, repositioning can be difficult.
Glossy finish is dulling
Clean the trim with a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. For restoration, consider using a plastic polish designed for automotive exterior trim, applied sparingly.
