FAQs
How do I clean the Sparco Martini Racing Rear Sun Visor Strip?
Gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or chemicals that could damage the logos.
Can this visor strip be removed easily?
Yes, it can be removed. If residue is left, use an automotive adhesive remover or isopropyl alcohol on a cloth.
Will this fit my specific car model's rear window?
The strip is 120cm x 10cm and is designed to be trimmed. It should fit most standard rear windscreens, but measure your window area before application.
Does this reduce visibility at night?
The strip is primarily for reducing direct sun glare. While it slightly tints the upper portion of the rear window, it is designed not to significantly impair visibility at night. However, always ensure your local regulations permit such a modification.
Is the installation permanent?
The installation is semi-permanent due to the adhesive backing. It can be removed, but care should be taken to avoid damaging the window or leaving excessive residue.
What are the exact dimensions of the strip?
The dimensions are 120cm in length and 10cm in height.
Can I apply this to the front windscreen?
This product is specifically designed as a rear sun visor strip and is typically intended for rear window application. Applying it to the front windscreen may obstruct your view in a way that is unsafe or illegal in many jurisdictions.
Troubleshooting
Visor strip not sticking properly
Ensure the rear window interior is completely clean, dry, and free of dust or grease before application. Re-apply pressure along the entire length of the strip.
Bubbles or creases under the strip
Carefully peel back the affected section and reapply, smoothing out the bubble or crease towards the edges. A plastic squeegee or credit card can help in smoothing.
Difficulty trimming to size
Use a sharp pair of scissors or a new, sharp craft knife blade for clean cuts. Measure twice and cut once.
Adhesive residue left after removal
Use an automotive-specific adhesive remover or isopropyl alcohol on a soft cloth to gently dissolve and wipe away the residue. Test in an inconspicuous area first.

Compatibility:
This visor strip is designed to fit most standard rear windscreens due to its trimmable nature. Its dimensions of 120cm x 10cm are generally suitable for a wide range of vehicles, from small cars to larger SUVs. Ensure your rear window has sufficient flat area at the top for application.
Care:
Clean the exterior surface of the visor strip gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the material and the printed logos. Do not use sharp objects to clean the surface. For interior cleaning, use standard automotive glass cleaners on a cloth, being careful not to excessively wet the adhesive area.
