6. Spend a good amount of time cutting the edges of the film for the perfect finish. It is tempting to rush here to get finished but it is crucial to get each cut spot on.
7. If you are filming the windows make sure you do this after your wrapping has stuck and use a good Edge Sealer to finish the job.
8. Replace the styling parts and wiper blades and gently remove any tape or excess graphic that may still be on the vehicle. If you followed step 6 carefully this should be fairly easy.
9. Don't rush out in the vehicle or let a client take it from you right after you have finished. You want to give it time to stick and the heating engine and the cool outside air will prevent this from happening. Give it as much time as possible, the next day is best.
10. Finally, the first time you clean the vehicle after it has been wrapped you must do it by hand and you must do it gently. Don't use any abrasive brushes or chemicals.
