To minimize the risks, use pattern for car bumper, hood and fenders. With the help of electronic patterns, you can cut the protective film on the plotter exactly according to the contour and size of the pasted part, avoiding overspending of material and damage to the body paintwork when working with a knife.

Other nuances of pasting complex body elements

In order to ensure the most reliable adhesion between the protective material and the base, the body part should be treated with a degreasing agent before pasting. Otherwise, air may accumulate between the film and the body element, which has a complex geometry, which will provoke premature detachment of the protective material.

One of the main tasks of the process of gluing angular parts is to prevent creases and excessive tension that can deform the material. Therefore, when forming the film on the surface of the body element, it is recommended to use a construction hair dryer, which will temporarily increase its elasticity by heating the protective material.

Remove excess adhesive composition from under the film with a plastic or silicone squeegee. Using such a tool will avoid the appearance of "arrows" when adjusting the position of the film on the pasted surface.

When using electronic patterns for a car of the same model, but with a different configuration, a situation may arise in which a piece of film is slightly larger than the part to be pasted. In this case, it is recommended to tuck the free edges of the material. This will allow you to create a reserve of film in case of shrinkage and avoid damage to the paintwork when cutting off excess with a knife.
To avoid this situation when pasting a complex part, you can purchase patterns for the car body and interior in our company, which provides customers with the opportunity to check the compatibility of the pattern with the machine of a particular model and configuration.
