DIY PPF Academy Lesson 12 - Slip and tack solutions, how they work

Slip and tech solutions are essential in the process of applying Paint Protection Film (PPF). Here's a breakdown of what each solution does:

Slip solution:
Used to apply PPF onto wet surfaces.
Enables easy movement of the film for proper positioning.
Prevents the film from sticking prematurely.
Allows precise positioning of the film, especially in corners.
Tack solution:
Used to secure the film in place.
Flushes out slip solution to prevent movement.
Makes the film stick firmly, preventing sliding.
Essential for keeping the film in place during application.
Understanding how slip and tack solutions work is crucial for a successful PPF application:

Proper ratios of slip and tack should be experimented with to find the right balance.
If the film is slipping too much, adjust the slip solution.
Tack solution acts as a hand holding down the film, especially when stretching it.
By mastering the use of slip and tack solutions, the process of fitting the PPF kit can be carried out efficiently and effectively.
