1. Choose a smooth surface for installation and determine the placement of the product. Mark it appropriately to ensure a straight and symmetrical placement.
2. Thoroughly clean the surface to remove any oil and dirt, and let it dry. Use our surface cleaning wipe to effectively remove dirt and grease, ensuring an optimal bonding surface for the 3M products. To remove any lime, grime etc., other detergents suitable for the surface may be needed. Avoid detergents that contain oil. If you are unsure about your specific surface, consult a professional.
3. Remove the protective film by gently peeling it off from the back of the product.
4. Apply the product by pressing it against the surface for 10 seconds.
5. Let the glue harden for 24 hours before subjecting the product to any load for optimal adhesion.
6. The product is ready for use after 24 hours.
These products are suitable for attachment to durable smooth surfaces such as tiles, lacquered or veneered board materials, etc. It is not advisable to attach the products to uneven/rough surfaces where the tape does not get full contact or surfaces that can slide as, for example, wet room wallpaper. On newly tiled walls it is important that the surface is cleaned thoroughly so that no joint film remains on the mounting surface. We do not recommend attaching the products over a joint, as the individual tiles may have different angles or levels. In case of uncertainty consult a professional.
If the different mounting plates are attached to different tile plates, it is important that these are at the same level and angle.
When cleaning the product, use a soft, clean, and slightly damp cloth to avoid scratching or damaging the surface. Rinse or wipe with water and dry thoroughly. Stubborn dirt or deposits can be removed with a mild cleaning product. It is important to use a mild and pH-neutral detergent. Do not use strong detergents or cleaners containing abrasives as they may damage the surface.
Follow our recommended weight limits to avoid overloading and ensure long-term performance.
Clean by wiping with a clean, damp and well-wrung cloth. Do not use other aids or cleaning agents as they may have an abrasive or other affecting effect which may damage the surface of the product. If the stainless steel product has been stained or discolored, which cannot be removed with normal water washing, the following cleaning methods can be recommended:
- Wash with alcohol, alternatively, thinner or acetone, rinse with clean, cold water and dry.
- Wash with organic solvents similar to the above, then wash with soap and water, rinse with clean, cold water and dry.
- Wash with mild abrasive detergent such as scouring powder, rub in the direction of any visible surface texture, rinse with clean, cold water and dry.
- Rub with a scotch-brite sponge in the direction of any visible surface texture, rinse with clean, cold water and dry.
