Installation Guide: Applying EVA Foam to Your Product

 

Follow these simple steps to effectively install EVA foam on your product.

Ensure you have all necessary materials before starting.

Materials Needed

 

• • EVA foam sheets

  • Isopropyl alcohol

  • Clean cloths or paper towels

  • Scissors or a utility knife (if trimming is needed)

  • A clean, dry workspace (preferably indoors with a warm temperature)

Step-by-Step Instructions:

 

1. Prepare the Surface

• • Clean Thoroughly: Begin by thoroughly cleaning the area of your SXS, Truck, Boat, or Cooler where the EVA foam will be applied. Remove all dirt, grease, and debris using a suitable cleaner.

  • Remove Protective Sprays: Ensure that no protective sprays like ShineOn or SC1 are present on the surface. These can interfere with the adhesive properties of the EVA foam.

2. Clean with Alcohol

• • Apply Isopropyl Alcohol: Dampen a clean cloth or paper towel with isopropyl alcohol.

  • Wipe Down Surface: Carefully wipe the entire surface where the foam will be attached. This step ensures that the area is free from oils and residues, promoting better adhesion.

  • Allow to Dry: Let the surface dry completely before proceeding.

3. Temperature Considerations

• •  Avoid Cold Conditions: Installing EVA foam in cold environments is not recommended as low temperatures can affect the adhesive's effectiveness.

  • Warm the Foam if Necessary: If you must work in a cold area, bring the EVA foam indoors and allow it to warm up to room temperature before installation. This ensures optimal adhesion.

4. Align and Position the Foam

• • Position the Foam: Take the EVA foam sheet and align it with the desired placement area on your SXS, Truck, Boat, or Cooler. Ensure it is correctly positioned before adhering.

5. Adhere the Foam

• • Peel Back Adhesive: Starting at one corner, gently peel back a small section of the foam’s adhesive backing.

  • Press the Corner: Carefully press the exposed adhesive corner onto the surface where you want the foam to be placed.

  • Gradually Apply the Foam: Slowly pull the adhesive backing away from under the foam as you press the foam onto the surface. Use a smooth, side-to-side motion to apply even pressure.

  •  Eliminate Air Bubbles: As you adhere the foam, continuously rub it side to side to prevent and eliminate any air bubbles from forming.

  •  Check for Bubbles: Once the entire foam sheet is applied, inspect the surface for any remaining air bubbles.

  •  Press Out Bubbles: If you find any bubbles, gently press them out towards the edges of the foam to ensure a smooth, secure finish.

Tips for a Successful Installation:

 

• • Work in a Warm Environment: Whenever possible, perform the installation in a warm, dry area to enhance adhesive performance.

  • Take Your Time: Rushing can lead to misalignment or trapped air bubbles. Patience ensures a professional-looking result.

  • Trim Excess Foam: Use scissors or a utility knife to trim any excess foam for a clean fit around edges and contours.

 

By following these steps, you can achieve a smooth and durable EVA foam installation on your SXS, Truck, Boat, or Cooler, enhancing both protection and aesthetics.
