Application spatula (included)
X-Acto knife
Spray bottle with soapy water
(1 tbsp of dish soap for 4 cups of cold water)
Suitable surfaces
Glass, windows, mirrors
Interior and exterior
Maintenance
The film can be cleaned with an ammonia-free solution and a microfiber cloth.
Allow it to dry completely before cleaning.
Surface Preparation
It is essential that the glass be clean and free of dust or residue. Allow it to dry completely before installation.
It's also important to thoroughly clean the area around the glass to prevent any dust from getting between the film and the glass during installation.
Prepare the soapy water solution by mixing 1 tablespoon of dish soap with 4 cups of cold water. Pour the solution into a spray bottle.
Installation Preparation
It is recommended to have two people for the installation.
One person should firmly hold the upper corners of the film in front of them, while the other person completely removes the protective backing from the adhesive surface. Nothing should come into contact with the adhesive surface. The adhesive side should face the person removing the protective backing.
Generously spray the soapy water onto the adhesive side of the film. Next, generously spray the glass surface.
Once both the adhesive side of the film AND the glass are fully wet, the film application can begin.
Installing the Film
Place the wet adhesive side of the frosted film onto the glass and slide it into your desired position. It is not recommended to peel the film off the glass to reposition it, as this could allow dust to get trapped underneath. The soap in the solution allows the film to slide.
Use the application spatula covered with a cloth to firmly push the water out from under the film, moving it toward the edges without damaging the film.
Seams.
For panels wider than 47 inches, the adhesive vinyl will be installed by overlapping the right panel over the left by 0.5 inches. The overlap will be visible, but you can remove the overlap with a double cut should you prefer.
The double cut: using a ruler, cut through both layers of the panels in the center of the overlap. Then remove the first small strip from the top and then the second. This will make your seam invisible.
!!!! Be careful not to press too hard with the X-Acto knife to avoid cutting the glass.
Finishing
Press firmly into the corners where there is excess film and trim it with an X-Acto knife.
It is recommended to wait until the film is dry before trimming the excess.
The film can be cleaned with an ammonia-free solution and a microfiber cloth.
