💡 Pro Tip: Apply the Sensor Covers only on clean, grease-free surfaces. This ensures strong adhesion and residue-free removal after painting.
Recommended Basic Settings (Reference Values)
- Ensure the surface is dry and dust-free before application.
- Center the cover on the sensor — the Y-shape helps perfect positioning.
- Leave it on during sanding, painting, and polishing — full-process protection.
- Peel off slowly after curing — no residue left behind.
Professional Workflow – How to Use Sensor Covers
- Clean and degrease the bumper area around the sensors.
- Pick up a cover using tweezers or applicator.
- Apply it precisely in the center of the sensor.
- Proceed with sanding, painting, and polishing as usual.
- After the process, lift and remove the cover gently.
- Check the surface — the sensor remains clean and functional.
Troubleshooting
- Cover peels off too early: Surface was damp — dry before applying.
- Paint creeps under edges: Cover not centered — reposition correctly.
- Residue after removal: Surface overheated — allow cooling before removal.
- Sanding marks visible: Do not reuse covers — always apply fresh ones.
Maintenance & Storage
- Store in a dry, cool place (10–30 °C).
- Avoid direct sunlight.
- Seal the box after each use.
- Handle only with clean tools or hands.
- Protect from humidity — adhesive strength may reduce.
