Camo Form® Tips
NEVER wrap around trigger or safety. Start at the Ends of the Gun and Work Towards the Middle: For best adhesion, start applying Camo Form at the tip of the gun's barrel and at the bottom of the stock (fig 4) Cut wrap when you reach the hinge or trigger. Make sure gun is not loaded.
-
NOTE:
Wrapping your gun with Camo Form helps prevent dangerous malfunctions caused by freezing condensation inside the chamber. This will also help keep other moving parts working normally.

Apply Camo Form®
Follow standard safety precautions when applying Camo Form™ to firearms. Make sure weapon is not loaded, confirm that the safety is in the “on safe” position and point the barrel away from you at all times. Camo Form should not interfere with the safety or action of a firearm. If this occurs after application, remove Camo Form and reapply in a manner that allows for the proper function of all parts.
-
Step 1:
For best adhesion apply in temperatures above 40º F ( 5º C). Secure beginning of Camo Form by overlapping entire width of roll for the first wrap. (fig 1)
-
Step 2:
Stretch Camo Form® while applying to weapon. This will help to apply Camo Form smoothly and will maximize the life of the camo wrap.
-
Step 3:
Stretch, wrap and overlap Camo Form by 1⁄4 inch on sucessive wraps.
Store Camo Form in sealed plastic bag away from direct sunlight and extreme heat. (fig 2)
-
NOTE:
Wet Camo Form should be removed from moisture sensitive items such as wood stocks, gun barrels, optics, etc. Allow Camo Form and item to dry, then reapply. If Camo Form loses self cling properties over time due to extended exposure to sunlight or extreme heat, fabric can be reused and secured with tape.

If your butane stove is struggling in cold weather, set it in a pot lid and add 3/4” (15mm) of cool water. The stove will roar to full power (the fuel is now at least 32˚ F, 0˚ C). Do not use hot water in the lid.
