Hey which card is the best for pushing water out of the film on final application. Advertisement said blue max is the best tool for this but i dont know too much about it. Is blue max and blue card the same thing or are they different. Any opinion on what i should buy is appreciated thanks

a blue max is a squeegee. it comes in two different designs. a card is a different tool, used after the blue max, to push water from the edges and touch up stuff.

bingo.gif Darrin's right ...use a blue max, or a clear max ,or an orange crush to push water out and they make different cards to use for finishing off the edges. You'll have to experiment with different ones to find the one that suites you the best!!

look into getting an orange or white/black edge card for finishing the edges. Both are soft enough that they won't scratch the film. The best bet is to pick up a bunch of different squeegees so you can figure out what works best for you
