picking out

[iiball]

What is the best way to lift from the edge of the film after u have laid it down to pick out  debris,lint etc...I use chopsticks it works but sometimes it leaves scuff marks from the me trying to lift the film up on the edge.

You should only use chopsticks to get fuzz or small debris from under the film, not to lift the edge.  I normally wrap as many edges as I can so if I do have to lift up the film, I'm going to lift the film on a wrapped edge so I don't booger up film that showing.   I use my fingernail which I cut short on one side and leave it progressively longer to the other side.  That way when I do have to lift the film, I start with the short side of the nail under the film and rotate my finger until the longer part is under the film giving me enough to lift it up.

How do you get the debris out when it seems to be permanently stuck to the adhesive?

I can answer this. Unless it's 1 minor , small,singular thing to remove where it was quick and you'd never know, it will be subpar work .You take the time to tear it off , redo it and move on giving the customer the clean job they payed for and will tell friends and family about.

Well said. high level of expectation results in a high level of quality and therefore demands a higher level of $$ when it's all said and done.

I did not realize until now that we were talking about PPF and not tent. However the post still applies

I have come up with methods for minimizing contamination issues but if I find something under the film I can lift it up and flush it out with a pressure tank. I also use diabetic needles to get anything imbedded into the adhesive. That is another reason why I prefer Suntek over other films as the adhesive is not aggressive. I do not get lift lines and dust, lint, and other contamination doesn't imbed into the film the way I have seen it with other films.
