Window Care

After installation, there may be a hazy appearance. This condition is temporary, caused by the moisture used in applying the film. After this moisture dries, the hazy condition will disappear. Do not operate windows until your film is dry. Automotive Window Films may be washed with common washing solutions three days after installation. Abrasive type cleaning agents and bristle brushes which would scratch the film must not be used.
