How to Install Car Anti-Collision Strips?
2 Answers
Clean the area on the car door where the anti-collision strip needs to be installed. Peel off one end of the adhesive strip on the back of the anti-collision strip and attach it to the edge of the car door. Press the anti-collision strip firmly and peel off the adhesive strip in one motion. Trim any excess adhesive strip at the edge of the car door, and the entire process is complete.
As a long-term car owner, I have extensive experience in applying bumper guards. The key is ensuring the car body is absolutely clean: first wipe off surface dust with water, then use 70% alcohol to remove grease and residue, otherwise the adhesive won't hold well. Placement is crucial for collision protection - I usually apply them at the four corners of doors or high points on bumpers, as these areas are prone to hitting walls or poles. Use a tape measure or eyeball the position, temporarily marking guidelines with tape. Before application, check if the bumper guard is intact, and peel off the backing slowly to avoid wrinkling. Align it properly and apply in one go, then press firmly from center to edges with your palm for 30 seconds to eliminate air bubbles. After application, let it cure for half a day before use. I recommend soft rubber bumper guards for their excellent elasticity and impact resistance, plus color-matching options for better aesthetics. When washing, gently clean the guards without harsh scrubbing to prevent detachment. Benefits include reduced scratches and repair costs, especially easing worries in tight parking spots. One proper application can last years, saving time, hassle, and money.
