01

Surface Preparation

Thoroughly wash and clean the vehicle’s surface to remove dust, wax, and oils. A spotless surface ensures proper adhesion and a flawless finish.

02

Apply Slip Solution

Spray a slip solution (water mixed with a few drops of baby shampoo) on both the vehicle panel and the adhesive side of the PPF. This allows easy repositioning during alignment.

03

Position & Smooth the Film

Carefully place the PPF on the panel and align it precisely. Use a squeegee with firm, overlapping strokes from the center outward to remove air bubbles and slip solution.

04

Secure & Cure

Tack down edges and curves using a heat gun or hair dryer as needed. Allow 24–48 hours for full adhesion and curing. For complex curves and panels, professional installation is recommended.
