Your dry method saved the day. Fought with the weather tek wet directions for over an hour. Was ready to give up. Found this video and had it in and looking perfect. 😀
Love it!!!
Great i like your videos alot ,thank you for all information you share!
Thanks for the video! That's an interesting technique. I'll have to give it a try
Let me know how it goes!!
Nice technique
Gracias 🇲🇽✌️
Try using a spatula! I use a silicone spatula/spoon with slime as my slip and it’s tacks with ease and install is insanely quick
No way!! Seriously??
Unfortunately my door cups come together with the door sheet instead of separate sheets like yours. They were a pain like you mentioned. One of those cups was where I got some fingers. Luckily you suggested using 90% rubbing alcohol for edge adhesive enhancer for something else, I got the idea. Well those fingers went away.
Material what kind is
Help with price
Have you tried tacking it around the top and bottom edges and using a hair dryer to help it stretch into the cup with a bit of tack solution?
I have not.. this sounds like a good idea! Does it work good for you?
@Drive Protected I'm not a professional but it works great. I just did them on my new camaro today and they turn out perfect.
What to spray to clean area and apply it I didn’t understand what you sais you sprayed
Slip solution
Eric do you still use xpels plotting software? I am trying to find generic door cup patterns with no luck. All the ones that are vehicle specific fit like crap. Any ideas?
We do not use XPEL anymore. I personally am not a fan of any door cups. Maybe you could find a way to bulk install them? Im not sure.
@@DriveProtected Yeah typically I’ll just make my own but I agree, they all suck. Which pattern software are you using?
I use Core film installation software and you can cut generic cups in various sizes. Just have to select Generic under the vehicle make drop down menu. I agree that 98% of the vehicle specific patterns are garbage. I’ve struggled to make any of them turn out good.
@@jesselucero8503 how do you like core? And how much is it? Trying to find costs of the different softwares is impossible. I like DAP but the cost of it is ridiculous
@@nateojala I don’t know the cost of it, but I’m sure if you gave Eastman Performance Films a call they could get that information for you. I like the software. Very easy to use and intuitive. I haven’t done a lot with editing patterns yet, but seems fairly straight forward. They are pretty quick also when it comes to adding new model cars.
What kinda slip solution do I need?
Johnson’s baby shampoo and distilled water is best.
