Troubleshooting
Spoiler not sticking securely
Ensure the helmet surface was clean and completely dry before application. Try re-applying firm, even pressure. For persistent issues, consider using a helmet-safe adhesive promoter (test in an inconspicuous area first).
Paint not adhering properly
Lightly scuff the clear spoiler surface with a very fine-grit sandpaper (e.g., 600-800 grit) before painting. Ensure you are using paints designed for plastic surfaces and have applied appropriate primers if necessary.
Spoiler vibrates or detaches at speed
This may indicate inadequate surface preparation or a weak bond. Re-clean the surface and reapply the spoiler with firm pressure. Ensure the spoiler is correctly aligned and there are no gaps underneath.
