STEP ONE,
Remove each stripe
one at a time with a
pair of tweezers,
utility knife or a
toothpick. Careful
to only pull off
one stripe at a time.
​STEP TWO,
Apply the stripe to
the model in the
desired location.
For best results,
find a smooth
flat surface without
rivets or seems in
the model.
STEP THREE,
Burnish the stripe
using a tooth pick
or similar, careful
not to press too
hard. Do not use
anything metallic
or it may scratch
the model’s surface.
Covering up factory markings
​
Covering up factory markings is
very easy and clean. Just line up the stripe and apply. Also works over decals!

Optional Clear Coat Finish
​
To keep the safety stripe in place permanently on
the model, apply a light clear coat finish. This will protect your model and the adhesive stripes.
