Peeling Liner, A Different Approach
QUOTE
I don't know if any of You guy's (and Lady's) do this already, but I peel My liner from bottom to top, and this is Why.
1) Water runs downhill. If You start Your spray at the top, anything that MAY be on Your peelboard will run onto the film. If You start at the bottom, You can lightly mist the top, with no excess water running onto the film.
2) If, when trying to pull the liner, Your fingernail grabs the film and bends it slightly, its much easier to heat that out at the bottom, instead of the top.
3) Much less likely to pull the film off the glass when pulling the liner.

Air bag to the rescue, Mercedes CLS the easy way.

I did my 2nd CLS mercedes today and this time managed to get a few pics of the job,
I use an inflatable air bag in-between the very tight rear deck and the back glass, this gives plenty of room down there then, I then use a variety of tools for water extraction. I think the most effective is a tool called "the cleaver", I got it from 44 tools and it does not have a great edge for some reason, I put a couple of strips of masking tape on the blade and it works like a champ.
