Shouldn't really once up to temp. All you might find is that it runs too cool if the weather isn't hot. In this case, put tape across the radiatior to reduce the cooling area.
Do it one strip at a time until the right temp is achieved - or apply three or four lines, and if it gets too warm, remove a strip.
