It’s more work thank meets the eye. My install took 8 hours. Done in Hamilton. The material needs to be applied on a wet surface, stretched, air and water taken out, a steamer must be used to make the plastic worrkable etc…Then the plastic, while on your paint:ohnoes: is cut with an exacter knife.

i did a few you could probably look at. including my car. mine has been on for 3 years. and i recently removed a few pieces off of my neon when i sold it to check the adhesive removal. it removed perfectly after being on for close to 3 years. and the only problem was the paint under the chipguard was glossyier than the exposed paint around the vinyl.

Yeah this thing is a decent saver for sure. I saw about 10 or so show cars at HIN AZ with it. The owners all swear it had saved their custom paint for sure.

I wax the film too. Just keep it away from the edges.
