Should You Wash the Car Before Applying Film?

[ElisaDella]

You should wash the car before applying film. If the car body is not clean, bumps will appear after the film is applied, which not only affects the appearance of the car but also makes the raised areas prone to damage. Precautions for car film application: 1. After applying the film, avoid rolling down the windows for three days and do not wash the car during this period; 2. For vehicles with a sunroof, avoid opening the sunroof while driving, especially at high speeds, within three days; 3. If bubbles appear at the edges of the film, go to the installation site for repair within 24 hours. If this period is exceeded, the adhesive around the bubbles will have dried, making the film edges immovable, and folds will inevitably occur during repair; 4. Do not use highly adhesive labels directly on the film within one month of application to prevent partial detachment of the film from the glass; 5. When applying car film, also be aware of the vehicle inspection policies in different cities.
