How to use

Clean the trunk sill and bumper edge thoroughly to remove dirt, wax and oils before application. Align the pre-cut film with the contours of the rear bumper edge, peel off the backing and apply gradually while smoothing out air bubbles with a soft squeegee or cloth. Ensure full contact along the edges and allow the adhesive to set according to ambient temperature; avoid washing the area intensively for the first 24 hours to ensure proper adhesion.

Usage recommendations

For best results, apply the film in a dust-free environment at moderate temperatures (recommended 15–25°C). If necessary, use a heat gun or hair dryer on low setting to conform the film to complex curves, keeping the heat source moving and at a safe distance to avoid surface damage.
