DIY PPF Academy Lesson 18 - Applying the first panel

During the installation of the first panel, slip solution was applied to the roof area before applying the panel to ensure it was wet. Here are the key steps:

Wet fingers slightly to help peel off the dry film
Use slip solution on both the panel and the film back
Align the panel carefully to check the fit
Apply tack solution to secure the edges in place
Continue to move and adjust the panel as needed
Use slip solution generously to allow for smooth gliding
Align, tack, and squeegee the panel into position
Ensure the top edge is tight and secure in place
Wipe down the panel and remove excess moisture
Check alignment and leave the panel to set
This process ensures a precise and secure installation of the panel without compromising the fit or quality.
