The Installation Process for vehicle Paint Protection Film: What to Expect
The Process of Installing Car Paint Protection Film
Preperation
The first step is to thoroughly clean and dry the area where the film will be applied. This ensures that the film will adhere properly and that any dirt or debris will not be trapped under the film.
Installation
Once the film is cut to the correct size and shape, it is ready to be applied to the car. This involves spraying a special gel solution onto the car's surface to make it more pliable, and then carefully positioning the film on top of the gel solution. The film is then pressed down firmly to ensure a secure bond, and any excess film is trimmed away.
Measurement & Cutting
The next step is to measure and cut the film to the correct size and shape for the specific area of the car that is being protected. This involves using a proprietary computer program to create a precise template for the plotter to cut the film.
Finishing
After the film is applied, it is important to carefully smooth out any wrinkles or bubbles to ensure a smooth, seamless finish. This may involve using a heat gun or other tools to soften the film and help it conform to the contours of the car's surface.
