Can I use an overlaminate?
Applying 3M™ Wrap Overlaminate Series 8900 can alter the appearance of 2080 films’ inherent texture. If graphic protection other than 3M™ Wrap Overlaminate Series 8900 is used, then the wrap shop assumes all risk for testing, approving, suitability, and warranty.
How do I clean the vehicle properly before applying film?
Working with 2080 high gloss films requires a clean installation environment. Keep the floors clean of dust and debris to lessen the chance of contaminants getting under the film. Lint-free clothing and hair covers may also be necessary. Film should be installed immediately after the installation surface has been cleaned.
