Setup and work in a dust-free
environment with little or no wind, and out of direct sunlight.
Be sure the painted surfaces to be covered are both clean, dry and free
of wax residue.
Pre-mix both the soap solution and the water-alcohol solution before you
begin. Don't rush the installation. Please take the time to read them and understand the procedure prior to
purchasing your kit as we do not accept returns on this product line.
Tools & Materials
Recommended
· Installation Squeegee
· 1 quart spray bottles (quantity: 2)
· Baby shampoo
· 70% Isopropyl Rubbing alcohol
· Non Scratch Detailing Cloth
Step 1. The optimum environment is a temperature range between 50
and 90 degrees (Farenheit) and never apply in inclement or windy
weather. (Applying indoors may be advisable here.) If your temperature
is below 50 degrees farenheit we suggest using warm water in your squirt
bottles and running the car beforehand to get the hood area warm.
Step 2. Use 2 parts of alcohol to 3 parts of water to make your
alcohol and water mixture ready. Using one of the spray bottles, fill it
completely and add 2 or 3 drops of baby shampoo.
Step 3. By spraying the slip solution onto the intended surface
to be covered, and then wiping it off with your gentle cloth, you should
have no trouble eliminating any oil, grease, dirt, or any other
contaminant.
Step 4. Before removing the liner, make certain you confirm all
part placements and sizes.
Step 5. Once you’re ready to begin, remove all dirt from your
hands. If even the tiniest bit of dirt is ignored, this will relocate to
the adhesive and cause a very unattractive appearance. It’s also
advisable to keep your fingers wet to avoid them from sticking to the
adhesive. Never handle the adhesive side unnecessarily. Occasionally,
you will need to handle it but it must be done lightly and quickly.
Fingerprints will transfer through the material if handled too often or
too long.
Step 6. Be certain to remove any wax on the section that your kit
will be installed onto since this must not be put onto a vehicle that
has been newly waxed. Note: Dish washing detergents are one method of
stripping wax from a painted surface. You can also use "3M Adhesive
Remover" or something comparable to remove any wax.
