Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal results, ensure the target surface is thoroughly cleaned with a degreaser or alcohol-based cleaner to remove oils and debris. Measure the area before applying the tape to avoid wastage. Once applied, apply firm, uniform pressure along the length of the tape to activate the adhesive. Store the tape in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the adhesive backing for future projects.
