ive seen a hundred times how its done with the gutter metal and zip-tie blocks and im planing on doing it the same way just wanted too see if there were any tips er tricks i should be aware of before i start ive seen it put on in individual sections and as one big sheet im thinking of doing it all as one piece thoughts and feedback are appreciated

 

I just did mine. Lowes didn't have what I was looking for. Home Depot had a piece about 40"x8'. Make sure you wipe the back down with alcohol first so adhesive will stick.

 

thanks i was gona go too lowes guess im heading too home depot instead

 

Take the adhesive off of the zip tie blocks, sand them down and use some epoxy. The adhesive that comes on them will stay on the grill but will peel off the back of the block after a little while.

 

use tin snips (saves time) gloves (keeps those digits from bleeding) and gorilla glue (use it liberally and u'll never be back in there to fix it)

 

thanks guys now fer the question of should i or should i not plastidip the front grill hmmmmm

 

I used the zip tie blocks and they lasted 4 months and after i used gorilla glue and put it on the blocks that where still stuck and i put gorilla glue on the mesh to it sticks to the girl some glue did come out to the front of the grille but i bedline my whole grill so you could not tell

 

nice

 

I did individual strips, because this partnered with 4 fasteners on each side allowed the GutterGuard to get pulled nice and snug all the way around each vent opening. I plasti dipped the gutter guard prior to installing as the left over stuff i had in the garage was silver.

If you do use individual strips, just get all the zip ties through and connected with a couple of clicks, then once they are all ready, tighten them down one at a time. Dont tighten each one as you go.

 

I didn't plastidip mine. I shot it with high temperature paint. My grill is plastidipped though.
