Clean the specific dash areas that are to be covered by the trim thoroughly with Isopropyl Alcohol. The surface area should be free of lint or dirt, and more specifically silicone based "Vinyl Treatment Products". These products leave a silicone residue that will greatly reduce adhesion.

Caution!!! Vehicles that have been treated with Vinyl Treatments need to be thoroughly cleaned until the surface area is dull in appearance, and there is no feel of residue to the touch of your fingers. Special care should be taken on any used vehicle.The surface can be tested with a piece of masking tape in order to see if it will adhere.

Before removing the tape backing, test fit each component in order to get comfortable with your placement, ensuring that buttons and vents move freely.

If you are installing a Flat Dash Overlay this will help you establish the areas to be covered with 3M Adhesive Promoter.

Apply 3M #4298 Adhesive Promoter to all areas being covered by the Trim Components. Allow to dry (5 minutes) before applying trim pieces.(Flat Overlay pieces only.)

Caution!!! Adhesive Promoter is corrosive, be careful not to drip it onto any area not being covered by the Dash Trim, as it will permanently discolor whatever it comes in contact with. Rubber Gloves are recommended during this process. Preparation for adhesion is the most important factor in a quality installation. Installation error is not covered by warranty.

With a Standard Utility Knife catch the corner of the Red Liner on the 3M tape and remove on all pieces. After installing the trim do not handle for a period of 72 hours.

Once Red Liner is removed gently press product into place. Large Components should be installed left to right to avoid center buckling. Never force a component that requires bending. If bend resistance is experienced, use a Hair Dryer as a heat source. This will soften the material and make it easier to bend into place. Once Dash Trim pieces are all in place, give all pieces a final press using your fingers, this will act as a final visual inspection before the tape cures.
