This premium quality 320 micron (or 0.32mm) thick bike frame protection tape will help to keep your bike looking in fantastic condition by protecting it whilst you use it for what it’s designed to do. We can’t protect you from major damage or dents if you have a complete wipe out with a rock or tree. However, we can help so that general wear and tear will be a thing of the past and minimize any cable rubs, scuffs, chips, rubs, etc. encountered along the way from everyday use. The tape is easy to apply if you follow some simple rules and tips for optimum performance. Once applied you can clean your bike as normal due to the strong waterproof adhesive and high quality of material used on the top protective vinyl layers. Installation Instructions 1. Thoroughly clean your bike and ensure it is clear of any dirt, grease, or debris 2. Fully dry your bike 3. Before removing the backing paper cut the length and shape of the tape to create a perfect fit 4. Use the hair dryer to warm the tape. This will help to activate the adhesive and make the tape more pliable to ensure a perfect fit around any angles or curves 5. Remove part of the backing paper and place the first part of the tape onto the surface of your bike 6. Maintain a constant press, work slowly and smooth out any air bubbles as you go along Top Tips * Ensure your bike is completely free of dirt, dust and grease * Warm the tape with a hair dryer to make it pliable * Do not apply in temperatures below 10C * Ensure the bike and tape is at room temperature * The tape is designed to be permanent * If you remove the tape, use a hair dryer to warm the tape up to assist with removal * Any residue can be cleaned off with white spirt or rubbing alcohol

Great tape, if you are willing to take your time and apply it properly.
The tape is great, as long as you cut out the appropriate shapes without right angles (I would recomend cut the pieces in such way that all the corners are rounded), and clean the bike.I followed instructions that I read in one of the other comments, where I cut the tape into right shapes with the protective paper still on, I cleaned the bike with 50:50 solution of isopropanol/water and dired the bike with a dust-free microfibre cloth. Right before the application of the tape I sprayed the frame and the sticky side of the tape with filtered water containing just a drop of washing-up liquid. Water prevents the tape from sticking right away and allows to avoid air bubbles. The tape is pressed with fingers (a piece of cardboard or squeegee also works great) from the centre to the edges, making sure that any air bubbles are pushed to the edges of the tape. The wet edges of the tape may require you to press on them for ca. 5s but they will stick. Once the tape is on, it's really on. I applied it at room temperature, and did not play around with any hairdryers or heat guns. I got absolutely no air bubbles, and you cannot even tell that the tape is on the bike. Really happy with the product. The tape is also reasonably thick, which I really like. The whole application is not quick (takes a few hours), but the results are absolutely great. If you plan to protect most of the frame and the fork, I would definitely recommend to buy at least 3m.Edit: I added two photos of the tape that I applied to the down tube, after two months of constant riding. After two months the nothing is happening to the tape. Still looks absolutely great and does not peel. It already saved my frame from a number of scratches, and already at this point it more than paid for itself in paint work!

Curvas difícilles
Cuesta mucho trazar curvas, imagino por el grosor, skin armor de zefal es mas fino y te deja moldear mas las partes mas curvas o pliegues del cuadro de la bici
