Q: How do I replace the strike pad on the match tube?
A: Follow these simple steps:
- Pop open the rubber cover on the bottom of the tube to expose the strike pad.
- Peel off the worn strike pad
- Peel the backing off of the new strike pad
- Align the edges of the new strike pad with the hard end of the tube, ensuring the pad is centered.
- Press the adhesive side of the strike pad onto the end of the tube opposite the screw-on cap (the end that will be protected by the rubber cover).
