Learn me: 3M Clear Bra Application Fluids

[johnnysigns]

I have heaps of wrap experience, but zero clear bra install experience. I have a newer porsche to do with a precut template in 3M Scotchguard.

I was recommended to use 95% water and 5% Xymol soap solution to initially float the material & straight 70% isopropyl alcohol for any areas not prone to staying down.

This sound right to any of you experienced installers?

I'm not nervous to handle the material, but I want to use the right fluids.

Full Zep Spay Bottle with water and two or three Drops of Baby Shampoo works well.

shake well!

we use water / baby shampoo to float.

50% water 50% denatured alcohol to set

I use hot water 'cause it helps to smooth the film. This ease the application on challenging bumpers and other curvy areas.

As for the mixes, I have 3 bottles when I work:

1- application fluid made of 5-6 drops of baby shampoo (in a large pressurized bottle)
2- rinse fluid made of 70% water - 30% iso. alcool
3- iso. alcool (straight, non-mixed) to help on corners where film is very stretched
