Step 1 · Clean the Stair Surface

Use a clean cloth dampened with isopropyl alcohol to wipe down the area on the stairs where the LED strip lights are detaching. This process removes oils, dust, and any lingering adhesive from the original installation, preparing a clean surface for the new adhesive. Ensure the surface is completely dry before proceeding.
