Light dirt or brake dust
Spray Quick Dry on the exact area where the weight will go and wipe it clean. Spray that clean bond area again, let it dry for a few seconds, and do not wipe the final application.

What should I do before a stick-on wheel weight?
Remove the old weight. Spray and wipe the old bond area clean. Spray the clean area again, let it dry for a few seconds, then install the new weight.
Look at the mounting area first
What is on the wheel?
That answer tells you whether you can clean the bond patch now or need another step first.
Old foam or adhesive
Remove the bulk material first. Then use Quick Dry for the final clean of the bond patch.
Oil, heavy grease, tire lube, or silicone dressing
Remove the visible film first. Then use Quick Dry for the final clean of the bond patch.
Corrosion or a loose finish
Stop. Correct the surface condition before final cleaning. Quick Dry cleans the surface. It does not repair it.
The final prep
Remove. Clean. Prep. Stick.
These photos are in the same order as the work.
1
Remove
Take off the old tape weight before cleaning the bond area.
2
Clean
Spray the old weight area, then wipe away the remaining adhesive, dirt, and residue with a clean, dry cloth.
3
Prep
Spray the clean bond area again. Let it dry for a few seconds. Do not wipe off this final application.
4
Stick
Install and press the new tape weight in place using your shop's standard procedure.
Wheel finishes
Safe for standard and custom wheel finishes.
That includes clear coat and custom paint. Test specialty, refinished, ceramic-coated, or unknown finishes in an inconspicuous area first.
Scrapers, abrasives, and other removers are separate choices. Follow the wheel or coating maker's instructions for those tools and products.
