Would you like to know how the installation of an automotive window film happens? Are you worried about what will be done to your car? Your concern is perfectly understandable, therefore we thought it might be useful to describe the process step-by-step, so you won't have to worry.

Automotive film installations can happen with or without disassembling. In the former case, either the upholstery or the glass panel is removed. If no disassembling happens, the window is filmed in its place, without the removal of the upholstery. It is possible to do an impeccable and a horrible job with both methods, to work without causing any damages, but a beginner can harm the vehicle with any of the above techniques. It is crucial for you to select a professional workshop - you can trust SkyFol's licensed network. If, however, you prefer one of the above methods, inquire at the installer about the way they work.

  1. The job starts with disassembling the upholstery of the car.


     
  2. In the second step, the glass is taken out.


     
  3. The glass surface is cleaned thoroughly and the film is installed on it.


     
  4. The filmed glass and the upholstery are put back to their original place, and the job is done.

  1. First we mask surfaces from where dirt might get under the film while it is applied.


     
  2. The glass is cleaned using a chemical, and then also mechanically with a razor, to get rid of all contamination on the surface.


     
  3. The film is put on the surface and it is cut to the appropriate size.


     
  4. The film takes on the shape of the window by the application of heat - this is called shrinking.


     
  5. The next steps are cleaning the interior side of the glass (where the film will be installed), and sticking the certificate number on the window. The correct position of this label is between the glass and the film.

  6. The film is put on its final position, and it is squeegeed using water and an additive.


     
  7. The job is done. Now you are protected from the harmful and uncomfortable radiation of the sun.
