Process

The work should be performed in the following sequence:

• Initially, you need to take measurements and cut out a certain piece of film;
• The surface to be glued must be cleaned of dirt and degreased;
• Next, pour the soap solution into a spray bottle and spray it on the required surface area;
• Then we remove the protective backing film from the material;
• Apply the soap solution evenly to the adhesive side of the carbon film;
• Gently and slowly apply the film to the surface of the car;
• We align the material with a squeegee, moving from the center to the edges; you cannot pull the film;
• Dry the surface with a hairdryer and repeat the movements with a squeegee;
• Remove excess film residues with a knife or scissors;
• It will be useful to glue the edges with a sealant.

Important: after the work done, the car must stand in a warm garage for at least a day. Also, you cannot wash the vehicle with a contactless wash during the next week.
