2. Alat Kumpul: You will need a clean cloth, a spray bottle with water (optional, for wet application), and a squeegee or soft card (e.g., credit card) for smoothing.
3. Persekitaran Kerja: Perform the installation in a dust-free environment with a temperature between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F).

Follow these steps carefully for optimal results. It is recommended to apply the strips one section at a time.

1. Kedudukan: Carefully peel a small section of the backing paper from one end of a rim strip. Align the strip with the desired position on the rim.
2. Initial Adhesion: Press the initial section firmly onto the rim.
3. Gradual Application: Slowly peel off more of the backing paper while simultaneously pressing the strip onto the rim. Use your thumb or a squeegee to smooth out the strip, working from the center outwards to avoid air bubbles.

6. Final Press: Once all strips are in place, firmly press along the entire length of each strip to ensure maximum adhesion. Pay special attention to the edges.

Penjagaan Selepas Pemasangan

After installation, allow the adhesive to cure properly before exposing the motorcycle to harsh conditions or washing.

• Masa Pengawetan: Avoid washing the wheels or exposing them to heavy rain for at least 24-48 hours after application to allow the adhesive to fully bond.
• Pemeriksaan Awal: Periodically check the rim strips for any signs of lifting or damage, especially after the first few rides.

To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Puig Rim Strips, follow these cleaning guidelines:

• Pembersihan Lembut: Clean the rim strips with mild soap and water using a soft cloth or sponge.
• Elakkan Bahan Kimia Keras: Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or high-pressure washers directly on the rim strips, as this can damage the material or adhesive.

• Edges Lifting: If edges begin to lift, ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned and dry before application. Re-press the lifting edge firmly. If the issue persists, the strip may need to be replaced.
