This is an install instructional video for our Rvinyl on Headlight tint.
The first step is to measure the lights on the vehicle, measure each light separately and give around three inches of extra material on all sides. Top bottom, left to right and safely cut the light tint into section using a Snitty.
Next up is cleaning and use Rapid Prep. Spray the lights with an even coverage, then wipe them down with a microfiber towel. Open the hood, trunk or hatchback when necessary and clean all the edges. This is critical for a long term hold for type gaps. Take a squeegee and microfiber towel spray, then dig the corner in and go from side to side. If you're a beginner, a good tip is to test the cutting edges without any material on to get a good feel for the process.
Now we move on to the install and here is how not to do it. Release the entire liner and place it on the light. This leads to too many wrinkles. Here is one way on how to properly install it. Release a two inch section of the liner and folded is sure to crease it tightly. Place the Rvinyl light tint on one corner of the light, then holding it at a 45 degree angle released the liner it then gently pull. Take it to the body, top and bottom, heat the film again to get it to the final edge. Now see two triangle shapes at the top and bottom. With two hands spread the tint out towards the bottom corner, then repeat the same towards the upper corner.
Seal the edge and then with a squeegee squeegee from side to side, if bubbles occur, one option is to simply press the bubble out. If this doesn't work, make a tiny hole, then press the arrow. And once all the materials on the light go over all the edges with heat to relax it. Then with a sharp blade and a light touch cut around the light always slow down on the corner to help ensure a nice even cut. And in many cases, the cuts should be made on the opposite side to make sure there's enough light to go around the edge. Keep the film to relax it. Run a finger to round the material, then use a micro squeegee on the corner to get a proper seal without wrinkles, then finish the outside flat edges running a finger and a micro squeegee.
If applicable, go pick the excess piece off the side, lift the trunk or hatchback open. Hit it with heat to relax, then seal the film to the edge before cutting it out with the excess film removed, go over the white tint with heat to activate the adhesive.
For lights with big curves release the liner about four inches and then apply it in the same way, anchor it to the corner. Then released the liner even more. If it's long, roll it up and holding liner and the film at the same time, heat it, then stretch it around the corner. The liner helps make even tension on top to bottom during this poor. On the middle section at the top, if needed, picked the film up just slightly from the surface and then let it sit evenly back towards the light. Do the same for the corners. Once glassed out or there's no wrinkles at the top, simply squeegee from side to side.
For the bottom, repeat the same steps in terms of picking the film up, let it relax back to the surface, then squeegee the tint onto the light. The air egress feature of the adhesive will allow the air to smoothly go out with almost zero bubbles. Once the tint is on go over all the edges with heat to relax the film. Once the edges are relaxed using a safety box, click the blade, so it's extra sharp and for tight gaps, cut on the opposite side.
Always be sure to squeegee the body lines and the corners first. Then squeegee the flat areas last. On some edges, there is no opposite side to cut on. So the film needs to be picked up and took to the edge, then cut away. In most cases, there should be a safe edge to run the blade along, which means no direct cuts on the light. With everything cut away, go over all the edges with heat. And note that the light can be seen through the Rvinyl light tint to help ensure safety.
