Clean the area thoroughly and wipe it with rubbing alcohol. Allow the rubbing alcohol to dry.
Measure the area to be treated and cut the necessary amount of adhesive film.
Tape the film on one end to the edge of the surface to be treated, which will serve as a hinge and will hold the piece of film in place.
Beginning in one corner, peel the backing off of the film.
Spray the adhesive with a solution of three drops of detergent to one quart of water.
Squeegee the top surface of film to firmly adhere it to the surface, squeezing most of the liquid out from underneath.
