HOW TO: Use Heat When Installing RideWrap Protection Kit

RideWrap installation can be made easier with RideWrap installation tips. The use of hot air from a heat gun or hair dryer to aid the adherence of protection film can improve your install experience drastically. The main reason for using hot air is to evaporate the slip solution and improve the adhesion of the film to the frame.

Heat should only be applied when edges are not sticking. If the middle of the piece is not sticking at all, it is best to take it off, adjust the slip solution ratio, and then re-apply it. Heat is primarily used on the edges and corners of pieces to evaporate the slip solution. The addition of hot air dries the slip solution increasing the adherence of the film and securing the piece in place.

Things to keep in mind when using heat:
-Use to evaporate the slip solution
-Use minimally
-Use on edges and corners
-Avoid overheating the film and frame
-Should be the temperature of a warm bread roll
-Works with Tailored Protection™ kits, Covered Protection kits, and Essential Protection kits on mountain bikes, E-bikes, road, and gravel bikes
