Jake 307 Report post Posted February 7 Edge Prep/Probond is a solvent. If you put it on a before install it is going to dissipate for lack of a better term. Use it right before you press the area down. Just let it dry for a few sec and it will stick. 1 XPEL Jeff reacted to this Share this post Link to post
redneckj 60 Report post Posted February 9 I normally clean the back side of the hood with 99% alcohol or adhesive remover. I install the hood then flush the film that will wrap around to the back side of the hood with my Tac solution (8oz 99% alcohol and the rest distilled water). After that, I blow dry with compressed air. Let air dry while installing more Xpel. Then come back with the heat gun, warm the film that will wrap and wrap away. Never a problem with the Xpel sticking while using this system. Share this post Link to post
