   Clean the wheels up good, and if you can be bothered take them inside or put it on, on a warm day. Sticks much better and lasts longer.

   You can go to a locl bike shop mate and theyll stock it,,i used vinyl on mine as i was getting my roof done at the same time. So they used some vinyl to do the blue lip on mine,,and it took them minutes to do mate But he just took his time and it looks ace imo.
