This tutorial demonstrates how to apply a vinyl wrap to the roof of a dark green 1994-2001 Acura Integra.
The video shows how one person can complete a roof wrap without an extra helper. The process starts by tacking down one corner of the material to anchor it in place. Next, pull the backing paper all the way through from underneath. Once the backing is off, lift the film from both sides and glass it out across the roof. Glassing out all four corners helps stretch the sheet evenly and eliminates large wrinkles before you squeegee.
Squeegee Steps and Trimming
After glassing the roof, start squeegeeing in the center of the panel. Push the air out by working your way toward yourself. Wrinkles along the edge are easy to manage by lifting the film slightly and squeegeeing it down at the same time. Once the entire roof is flat, cut the excess film down to shape along the edges.
Aura Vinyl vinyl wrap features a cast polymer hybrid build with German-made adhesive, making it simple to pick up, reposition, and glass out during solo installations.
