How to use

Prepare the vehicle surface by cleaning the pillar areas with a lint-free cloth and a mild, alcohol-based cleaner to remove grease, dust and residues. Position each pre-cut cover on the corresponding pillar to check alignment before removing the protective liner. Carefully peel the liner and apply the film from one edge to the other, smoothing with a soft squeegee or cloth to eliminate air pockets and ensure uniform adhesion. If necessary, use a heat gun at low setting to conform the film around slight curves and to improve adhesion, then trim any excess film along edges for a neat finish.

Usage recommendations

For best results, install in a dust-free environment at moderate temperature (15–25°C). Avoid washing the vehicle or exposing the newly applied film to heavy rain for 24–48 hours to allow the adhesive to fully set. Use non-abrasive cleaning products on the film to maintain appearance and prolong service life.
