FAQs
How long does the adhesive last?
The adhesive should last for several years, but it's recommended to check it periodically and replace if necessary.
Can I remove the caps if needed?
Yes, but it will be difficult. You may need to carefully pry them off or use a specialized tool. Replacement caps and adhesive will be needed after removal.
Is the kit weather resistant?
Yes, the kit is designed to withstand various weather conditions.
What if a cap gets damaged?
Replacement caps can be purchased to maintain the appearance and security of your number plates.
Can I use this on different types of vehicles?
Yes, it is designed to fit most standard vehicles with standard number plates.
Does this product prevent all types of number plate theft?
While highly effective, no security measure is foolproof. This kit significantly deters theft by making it more difficult to remove the plates.
Troubleshooting
Cap doesn't stick properly.
Ensure the surface is clean and dry before applying the adhesive. Use the correct amount of adhesive and allow sufficient curing time.
Cap color fades over time.
This is normal, but the security function is still effective. Replacement caps can be purchased if you desire a fresh look.
