Application steps : 1/ Wet application is advised to obtain a perfectly clear professional appearance . Hands must be perfectly clean in order to avoid dirt or fingerprints. 2/ Wet the vehicle surface with water ; wet you fingers to avoid fingerprints while removing liner. Then spray the adhesive side with water. This makes the films easier to position on the vehicle.
3/ When position is correct, secure the film on the surface by starting from the center to the edges. Also spray the film to allow the squeegee to slide without scratching.
4/ If the film needs to be stretched, use hot air gun but do not excess stretching. You can also dry your fingers to grip the film surface and place on the desired position. Lock the corner of the film on that place. Then use the squeegee to bond and lock the rest , from the middle area to the outside edges.
