• Please remember that this is Paint Protection, not Paint Perfection:

Does this mean that Prestige Auto Armor does not take the utmost care in making your clear bra as invisible as possible?  Not at all, it is what my reputation is based on & that of which I am most proud! However, just like a beautiful, sparkling diamond, if you examine it close enough for imperfections, you will most likely find them. There may be minute flaws in the film, or a spec of dust that found its way in, or flaws in the paint that you didn’t notice previously.  I have, on many occasions during installation, removed the flawed or contaminated film and started over, but it still does not mean that any installation will be absolutely perfect.  I am sure you will appreciate my high attention to detail and I, in turn, appreciate your reasonableness.

• Please have your car clean and ready for installation: 
  

I will do a final cleaning and prep before installing the film, but I do not detail nor wash cars, I install paint protection film only.  Remember, the dirtier your car is when I arrive, the more chance there will be dirt specs under the film.  If you choose to have your car buffed or detailed prior to installation, please give attention to cleaning buffing dust out of the crevasses (under headlights, where body panels meet, etc.) prior to installation. THE CLEANER YOUR CAR BEFORE THE INSTALLATION, THE BETTER THE END RESULT!!!!

• Please do not wax your car between now and the appointment: 
  

You can wax right over the film and paint after installation, but doing so prior to installation makes it more time consuming for the film to properly adhere directly to the paint.

• Please examine closely the areas that will be protected for any existing rock chips or issues with the paint: 
  

If these need corrected before applying the film, please do so.  If there are just a few chips that need touched up, please provide touch up paint so I can fill them in before installing the film.  If touch up paint isn't applied to the chipped areas before the install, then after the installation it will be too late to touch these areas (if any) up.

• If your car has recently been repainted:

Please note that it is recommended to let the paint cure for 15-30 days prior to installing paint protection film.  Gases from the paint need to escape fully before being trapped between the surface of the vehicle and the paint protection film.  If not fully cured, then as a result over time the film can discolor, and or the adhesive on the film can fail.

• Try to avoid:

Highway driving, tailgating, and aggressive driving between now and your appointment to avoid getting more chips in your paint.

• After installation:

It is highly recommended for your car to not be driven for at least 12 hours.  Please make sure that you can avoid driving the vehicle until 12 hours has passed. 

• Keep your car out of the sun:

After the installation occurs, please keep your car in a garage, or shaded area for the  curing process.  Keeping the surface of the vehicle cool is best.  Since we install the film using an installation gel this is highly recommended.  If the gel underneath the film gets to hot before it drys out, it could result in small bubbles that may, or may not go away.  Some installers use typical soap and iso alcohol for installations.  When using soap and iso keeping your car in the sun is OK, but since were using a gel, again, keep it cool.
