NOTE: The film should be left a minimum of 72 hours to allow the pressure sensitive adhesive time to fully cure and all of the moisture to evaporate completely. After the curing process has passed, follow the simple maintenance instructions below.
Always remove contaminants (insect debris, bird droppings, etc.) immediately. If left on the film for a longer period of time, stains can form, just as the acids contained would eventually damage the paint.
We suggest using a twin bucket method, along with a lambswool wash mitt for a gentler clean. If you choose to use a pressure washer, ensure the lance is at least 3 feet away from the surface of the film, avoiding any edges to prevent lifting. We recommend using a pH neutral soap for a thorough wash.
Over time wax and dust can stick to the film edges. For cleaning, use a regular cotton swab dipped in 70% isopropynol alcohol (IPA or rubbing alcohol) and wipe it AWAY from the edge, NOT towards the edge to remove any residue.
Use a normal moisture absorbant cloth to dry the film the same as you would the rest of the vehicle. Due to wear from constant use, the topcoat of Veil Paint Protection Film may wear down. It is recommended to apply a ceramic coating as an additional layer to prevent topcoat wear. A maintenance program including the application of this topcoat sealant every 6 months is advisable.
Do not use solvent-based cleaners, insect removers, degreasers or other abrasive materials. Polishing equipment may be used, but at low speed and with minimal force. We recommend that you test on a small area out of sight before proceeding fully.
