General Instructions

1. The key to a successful installation is a controlled environment. Installation should be performed in a temperature range of 60º to 90º F. Application should never be performed in windy conditions.

2. Prepare the alcohol/water solution using one part 70% Isopropyl Rubbing Alcohol with two parts water.

3. Prepare a slip solution in one of the spray bottles by filling it with water and adding two or three large drops of baby shampoo. The soap solution should sheet off the hood and not produce much froth when properly mixed.

4. Remove any wax on the surface with the 3M Adhesive Remover and a soft cloth.

5. Contamination such as road tar, grease, oil, wax, dirt, and bug residue should be removed by cleaning the surface to be covered with the wax and silicone remover. Spray the surface thoroughly with the alcohol solution and wipe with the non-scratch absorbent cloth.

6. Verify size and placement of all parts before removing liner.

7. Clean hands thoroughly. Even the smallest amount of dirt on your hands will transfer to the adhesive, causing an undesirable appearance. Also, always keep your fingers wet to prevent adhesive from sticking to fingers. It will be necessary to handle the adhesive side of the material occasionally, but make any contact with the adhesive as brief as possible. This is important as fingerprints will show through the material.
