Troubleshooting
Guard not sticking well
Ensure the surface is completely clean, dry, and free from wax or polish before application. Reapply pressure along the entire length. If adhesion fails after some time, the adhesive may need replacement or the surface may not be suitable.
Guard appears loose on curves
Ensure the guard is cut precisely to length and applied with steady pressure. For very tight curves, slight warming with a hairdryer might improve flexibility, but avoid overheating.
Visible gaps or unevenness
Ensure the surface is smooth and free of debris. Trim the guard carefully for a precise fit. Ensure consistent pressure during application.
