How to properly apply paint protection film to a vehicle.

To properly apply paint protection film (PPF) to a vehicle, start by thoroughly cleaning the surface to remove dirt, debris, and wax. Use a mild detergent and water, then rinse and dry the surface completely. Next, prepare the PPF by cutting it to fit the specific area you want to protect, leaving a slight overlap for full coverage. Peel the backing off the PPF and carefully apply it to the surface, starting from one edge and using a squeegee to smooth out any air bubbles. Trim any excess film with a sharp blade for a clean finish. Use a heat gun to gently heat the edges of the PPF to help it conform to the contours of the vehicle and seal it in place. Finally, inspect the surface for imperfections, correct any issues, and allow the PPF to cure for at least 24 hours before exposing it to moisture or extreme temperatures.More details:-
