Note: It is recommended that a novice installer have a helper present on the following steps. It is not a requirement however it will help insure a quality installation.
- Measure and mark the positions you intend to place the racing stripes. This can be done using small stripes of masking tape or a wax pencil.
- Using a mild soap and water mix spray, peel the strip from the backing tape and liberally spray the adhesive side of the stripe.
- Position the stripe on the vehicle surface and slide it into position. This will be a good time to double check your measurements to ensure the strip is central
- Once you are happy with the position of the stripe remove the excess fluid using a soft squeegee, working from the center out.
- Using an X-Acto knife or similar, trim off any excess material.
- If your chosen design has more than one stripe repeat the above steps for the remaining stripes
- Stand back and enjoy your new racing stripes!
