Planyourinstallationbeforeremovingtheprotective
tapefromtheadhesiveatthebackofthestrip.Once
theadhesivehasbeenfixed,removingthestripwill
result in a significant loss of adhesive strength. To
ensure excellent adhesion, make sure that the
mounting surface is smooth, nonporous, flat, dry
andclean,freefromoilorsiliconecoatingsordust.
The fixing surface must be intact. We recommend
usingdegreasingproductsbeforemountingtogeta
