Did you know?
The transparent protective film on the top of the patch prevents you from touching the glue when you apply pressure to the patch.
Removing the transparent film could damage your repair, so we strongly advise you to leave it on.
If you still wish to remove it, wait 24 hours before doing so to ensure that the glue has had time to dry completely.
