If the carbon fiber plate sits in the sun too long, the plate heats up and melts the glue. That's why it "falls off". Try putting a wet paper towel and sitting it over the carbon fiber to prevent it from heating up so much.If it does separate, take it out the sun and use something to clamp it down to let the glue re-dry and you'll be good. Rubber bands seem to do good enough.

That's weird. Try using water only then dry it off. I only heard of that soap and water method, never tried it. I use water only to neutralize the seaglow and see if that helps. Stickiness don't bother me, but the squeaking when walking on certain floors do. Lol.

it is all very time consuming
and it doesn't make em look brand new,
i think sea glow leaves what i would call
a greasy look to the surface
would only use on the amber discoloring
not on the lemonade

I know that people have been doing for about 4-5 years now, but I'm amazed at how this stuff works, considering doing it myself if I get off my lazy tip. *Side-note* How does this stuff fare on DS soles? If the results are good, why hasn't Brand Jordan got the hint and added this within the production process since they inflated the price of most retros?
