Respro Reflective Sticker Kit: the current position

Respro currently describes self-adhesive stickers made with reflective and day-glow material for cycle, motorcycle and other solid surfaces. The manufacturer page should be checked for current colours, sheet contents and application advice.

Reflective material returns some light towards its source; it does not emit light and is not a substitute for legally required bicycle lamps and reflectors.

  • Current A4 sticker kit
  • Self-adhesive reflective material
  • Day-glow material included
  • Intended for suitable solid surfaces
  • Supplementary visibility aid

What has changed

The older product pages described separate Hi Viz Safe and Plain Ultra sheets. The current kit consolidates the useful purpose under a live product and stock record.

Do not assume an old cut pattern, colour or adhesive remains available. Application temperature, surface preparation and helmet-maker restrictions should be checked.

How it works and who it suits

Apply reflective shapes to clean, dry, compatible surfaces where vehicle headlamps can reach them from useful angles. Avoid covering vents, safety labels, lights or moving parts.

Inspect edges after wet cleaning and replace stickers that lift or become obscured by dirt. Never modify a helmet unless its manufacturer permits the adhesive.

Checks before buying

Colours, materials, fittings and included accessories can change during a product's sales life. Check the exact current listing and retain the maker's instructions.

  • Check the maker's current dimensions and compatibility information
  • Compare the exact current product rather than an old review score or price
  • Confirm warranty, spares and returns before ordering
  • Inspect safety-critical fittings regularly once the product is in use
05

Care, use and replacement

Follow the current maker's instructions for cleaning, adjustment and storage. Dirt, ultraviolet light, sweat and repeated wet use can shorten the life of fabrics, coatings and fittings.

Stop using equipment when a structural attachment, lock, light mount or load-bearing part is damaged. Replacement parts must match the exact generation rather than merely sharing a product-family name.
