Powersport Grafx is not responsible for product failure due to improper installation, normal wear, or damage.

Dry Installation Tips
Thank you for purchasing your backgrounds from Powersport Grafx. We work hard to manufacture the best product for your application. Please take your time and read these instructions carefully.

• Clean the surface completely with a solvent such as brake cleaner, carburetor cleaner, or contact cleaner ONLY!

. Leave no residue or oils. The surface must be clean.

• Trim the backing paper from around the perimeter of the background.

• Trial fit the background on the area that is to be applied. Make note of holes and curves and align accordingly.

• Begin by peeling the backing paper away at the top of the background. Peel appx. 1" and then check your alignment. Don't be afraid to fold the backing paper. Apply the top portion to the plastic.

• Once you have proper alignment, begin peeling the backing paper away while working the background into the plastic. You can use a small squeegee or even your fingers to do this.

• Watch for bubbles or wrinkles! If this is a problem, pull the background back slowly and work on that area. Reapply.

• Repeat 2 more times!

Wet Installation Tips
• Clean the surface completely with a solvent such as brake cleaner, carburetor cleaner, or contact cleaner ONLY!

• You can install these graphics with a wetting solution of soapy water. This method may NOT work on some side panels with complex curves (YZF’s and CRF’s).

• Add approximately 2 drops of liquid soap to 16 ounces of water. If you don’t know what liquid soap is, then go under the sink in the kitchen and look for a bottle marked “dishwashing liquid”. Be extra careful not to let anyone see you looking in this spot or it could lead to all sorts of unpleasant tasks. Oh, you can also use decal application fluid.

• Spray this solution onto your plastic and then onto the adhesive side of the graphic.

• Place the wet graphic onto the plastic and float the graphic into place.

• Take a plastic squeegee or other like device and squeegee the water out from between the graphic and the plastic.

• Take extra care to push all of the water out while leaving no bubbles.

• You should wait 24 hours before riding to allow all of the moisture to evaporate.

• Put “liquid soap” back where you found it.

KTM Hard Equipment rim decals look good and help protect your rims! Please follow the directions carefully. If your rims are already scuffed and have imperfections in the finish, you’ll have them looking new and trick very soon. It is recommended that you install these protective decals with the tire off of the rim. You can install these with the tire on, it will just be more difficult.

Remember, the longer strips are for the front wheels, shorter strips are for the rear. This is not difficult and the strips will easily bend with the curvature of the rim.

Step 1- Clean the surface of the rim with a degreaser or detergent (or both). Completely clean the entire wheel to avoid dirt or grime from dropping onto the rim area during installation.

Step 2- WASH YOUR HANDS

Step 3- Using a clean, lint free paper towel, spray contact cleaner, carburetor cleaner, or brake cleaner onto the towel and clean the surface of the rim. Do not use any cleaner that leaves a residue.

Step 4- Peel the top most strip from the set and stick the tip of the decal to the rim. Hold the tip in place with your thumb and guide the decal into place with your other hand while moving your thumb toward your other hand applying pressure to stick the decal to the rim.

Step 5- repeat 3 more times (4 per rim) and you have it. It may be necessary to cut a portion of the strip on the last pieces installed. This is due to variance in installation.

Step 6- Step back to admire your work!
