What is included in the kit?

The kit includes one piece of mouldable, self-adhesive foam padding.

Is the padding waterproof?

The padding is not waterproof. It is best to avoid exposing it to excessive moisture.

Can I reuse the padding?

It is possible to reuse the padding, but the adhesive may not be as effective after removal. Additional adhesive may be needed.

How do I remove the padding?

Carefully peel the padding from the seat. Use a heat gun to soften the adhesive if needed. Remove any adhesive residue with a solvent suitable for the seat material.

Can I cut the padding?

Yes, you can cut the padding to shape it to your seat.

Is this kit compatible with all kart seats?

The kit is designed to be compatible with most kart seats, but ensure the dimensions suit your specific seat.

Troubleshooting

Padding doesn't stick to the seat.

Ensure the seat surface is clean and dry before applying. Use a heat gun to activate the adhesive. If the problem persists, use a stronger adhesive designed for foam.

Padding is too thick and restricts movement.

Trim the padding to a thinner profile, or remove some of the padding from high-contact areas.

Padding shifts or moves during use.

Ensure the padding is securely adhered to the seat. Consider using additional adhesive or tape to reinforce the bond.
