Update after night two, I am now just over five hours in, night one I only got the chainstay pieces on, night two I was able to do seattube, downtube, toptube, headtube left & right pieces and seatstays, only smaller fill in pieces to go!
Warm room, warm bike and warm tape all help as well.
I am cold garage, cold bike, cold tape and slightly cold me!
If an edge wouldn’t stick don’t over work it, let it dry (overnight) and then just stick the edge down with your finger. Too much squeegee action just causes problems (slippage etc) and trying to stick a wet edge runs the risk of spoiling the adhesive
This massively, I spent a lot of time on the first night trying to get edges down and then pieces slipping when I pushed too hard, last night once I had the main central surface areas done I knew I could leave it and come back to press the edges down, which I have just done this morning.
Seat tube, top tube and down tube where all really easy to do*, the faff does really come from pieces around internal cable routing ports where the kit covers the raised edges, such a faff!
*except for flipping the bike minus wheels upside down in the workstand to get better access to the downtube
