Silicone Edge Graphics Hacks for when the graphics doesn't fit

Hack 1 Graphics too tight?

You can get up to 6mm of of additional material (3mm each side) by trimming the rubber beading as shown on opposite edges on the tight dimension

Trimming the beading softens the edge that the fabric bends around which loosens it slightly.

Hack 2 Graphics too loose?
Unpick the stitching, move the rubber beading in and Staple it to the fabric.
