- First up, clean your rim using our Glue & Selant remover to get rid of any unwanted residue that might be left behind from a previous setup
- Select the correct sized rim tape to match up with the width of your wheel’s rim.
- Locate the valve hole
- Peel back some of your Rim Tape and begin to apply and press down on the opposite side to your valve hole
- With your thumb holding down the tape, lightly peel the tape back and continue to press down to ensure you’ve got a firm bond with the rim itself
- Rotate the wheel around as you continue to apply the tape
- Once you’ve gone all the way around the rim, continue on to create an overlap of around 10 – 15cms
- Cut the tape at a 45 degree angle and press the edge down
- Check for any air bubbles and gaps, ensuring to press down firmly if you do spot any
- Apply the finishing patch over the edge of the tape to ensure a firm seal
- Push the valve through the rim hole and secure with the ‘O’ ring and locking ring
- Refit the tyre and inflate – you’re now ready to add your sealant!
