Designed for professional installers. Engineered for precision, durability, and long-term performance.
Built for Wet Application
Color PPF is engineered for wet application installation, enabling controlled positioning and excellent conformability on complex vehicle surfaces.
Wet application optimized adhesive system
High repositionability during installation
Excellent conformability on curves & edges
Professional-grade installation performance
Wet Application, Step by Step
A five-stage workflow that ensures precise alignment, full adhesion, and stable, lift-free edges.
Surface Preparation
- Clean and decontaminate the surface thoroughly
- Ensure no dust, oil, or wax remains
Installation Solution
- Use warm water as the base solution
- Optional slip enhancement: one drop of baby soap or mild dishwashing liquid
Film Positioning
- Spray solution on the surface and the adhesive side
- Position the film and adjust alignment freely
Squeegee Application
- Remove water and air from the center outward
- Work section by section for full adhesion
Edge Wrapping
- Use heat when necessary for curved areas
- Ensure adhesive is fully set before final sealing
Let It Cure, Keep It Flawless
The first days after installation define the lifespan of the film. Follow the curing window and maintenance rules closely.
No washing within the first 48–72 hours. Avoid high-pressure water on edges during this period.
Curing Time
- No washing within 48–72 hours after installation
- Avoid high-pressure water directed at the edges
Maintenance
- Use a pH-neutral car shampoo only
- Avoid abrasive cleaning tools and brushes
- Do not polish a fresh installation
What to Avoid
Most installation failures trace back to a handful of avoidable errors. Watch for these.
Installing on contaminated surfaces
Dust, oil, or wax sabotages adhesion from the start.
Using excessive soap in the solution
Too many additives weaken the adhesive bond.
Immediate high-pressure washing
Disturbs the film before it has set.
Insufficient water removal
Trapped moisture causes bubbles and hazing.
Sealing edges before full cure
Leads to lifting and peeling over time.
