User Instructions

● If possible, try to avoid seams directly

on corners. Instead, wrap the covering

around the corner so it will be less likely

to lift or catch from handling or cleaning.

● For large or more complex covering jobs the 21

Century Sealing Iron is the

ultimate because it has an accurate, indexed heat setting dial, a contoured

shoe and a longer cord. Use a 21

Century cover sock with the 21

Century iron.

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR NEON COLORS

You’ll notice neon MonoKote colors have an additional layer of

white adhesive beneath the main neon color on top. This maximizes

the brilliance of neons, but also affects the way neon MonoKote

behaves. You’ll need a little more heat than the other colors to

get the neon to shrink well. Either increase the iron temperature

slightly or move the iron slower when using neons.
