Using the Muc - Off Frame Protection Kit is easy. First, clean the areas on your bike frame where you want to apply the protection. Make sure the surface is dry and free of dirt and grease. Then, peel off the backing of the 3M self - adhesive on the protection pieces and carefully stick them to the high - risk areas like the frame, toptube, downtube, chainstays, and cable rub areas. Press firmly to ensure a good bond. As for maintenance, just clean the protection pieces with a mild soap and water solution when they get dirty. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they may damage the Ultra - Tough Cube - Tec material. Keep an eye on the adhesive over time, and if you notice any pieces starting to lift, press them back down firmly. In extreme weather conditions, there's no need to worry as the weatherproof adhesive will keep the pieces in place, but it's still a good idea to check your bike after long rides.
