Purpose and features
The protective film on the sills helps to protect the surface of the vehicle from light mechanical damage, and also preserves the paintwork of the car.
When choosing this accessory for your car, you need to pay attention to some nuances:
- Most often, they choose a colorless film, since it is quite problematic to choose the color of the body.
- A high-quality film should be made of several layers (2-3).
- It is recommended to purchase a polyurethane film, since it is this material that best protects the car from an aggressive environment.
Sticking
To stick the film on the thresholds of a car, it is not necessary to go to a car repair shop. This can be done independently, following a certain sequence:
- To begin with, it is necessary to thoroughly clean the surface of the thresholds from dirt and dust. Wash.
- After that, degreasing is performed. You can use a special compound that is sold at car dealerships.
- Then a piece of film is cut to the desired size.
- Starting from the top, the film is glued to the surface, while it is smoothed with a roller or some other soft object.
Note: this procedure is best performed at positive temperatures, if the film does not have sufficient elasticity, then it can be heated with a hairdryer.
- When gluing, it is important to align all the bends and make sure that the material completely fits the surface.
- After gluing, the material should cool down - do not close the door for a while.
In case you need to remove the film, the high-quality material will be removed without problems and will not leave any traces behind.
