This tutorial demonstrates a white vinyl wrap with a smooth finish on a 2013 to 2020 Subaru BRZ door. The video shows how to lay vinyl cleanly across the door panel without fighting wrinkles or tension. The installer focuses on proper material prep and careful squeegee passes to achieve a clean result.
Door Wrap Steps
The video outlines a straightforward four-step process:
- Glass the film across the door from the right corner down to the left corner.
- Squeegee the material from top to bottom.
- Never squeegee the film until it is completely soft.
- If a wrinkle appears, pick up the film past the wrinkle and smooth it out.
Following this order keeps extra tension off the panel and prevents glue marks. Waiting until the vinyl is soft ensures that you do not push hard lines into the adhesive layer.
