Tack Reducer

Our tack reducer makes installation EVEN easier. Mist it on to a panel and wipe it off after 30 seconds. 

If you're an experienced installer you may not need it at all but it really does make installation faster and easier by not only reducing the tack but also enhancing the air release qualities.

Avoid getting this product on edges or recesses where you want maximum adhesion. When using the tack reducer, post heating the entire panel becomes even more important. The track reducer will lower surface friction to make installation easier and heating to 200 degrees F will lock the vinyl in place.

One thing to be careful of is having excess material from a neighboring panel lie on vinyl that had been installed using tack reducer if you haven't yet post heated the panel. The surface friction will be lower between the vinyl and the panel, but high for the two pieces of vinyl, so when you attempt to pull off the trimmed vinyl it can lift the vinyl underneath and cause a wrinkle on your completed panel.

This can be avoided by post-heating the panel completely before moving on, putting masking tape underneath where your excess will lie, or spraying the tack reducer on top of the finished panel where the excess will lie. Always test spraying the tack reducer on an excess piece to ensure it doesn't discolor matte or satin vinyl.

Questions

How long will it last?

The main factor concerning durability is exposure to the sun. If you are able to store your vehicle out of the sun, it will last longer. We also recommend ceramic coating the finished install to block against harmful UV rays. We expect well maintained vinyl that is washed at least twice per month with vinyl safe care products, is not constantly exposed to the sun, and has been ceramic coated to last 3-5 years. Please refer to our care instructions. While the above still applies, Hyper PPF has an expected lifespan of 6-10 years.

What is the warranty?

We warranty against visual defects (meaning the look of the vinyl) and adhesive defects that are apparent prior or during installation. We will replace any film that prematurely discolors prior to 2 years from the purchase date for vinyl and 6 years for Hyper PPF as long as care instructions are followed. We may require a sample of the film to test. The customer is required to cease use if a defect is present during installation. Replacement after complete installation is up to our discretion. Labor costs related to (but not limited to) install, removal, or lifting clear coat/paint will not be covered under the warranty. Any material damaged after installation through a collision or normal road use is not covered. Vehicles with old paint, body damage, exposed body filler, poor factory paint, or repainted surfaces may have issues during installation or removal due to the poor bond between the paint and the body.

Why is Aura better?

In short it comes down to two things. The first is the cast polymer blend used in the vinyl. It has more atoms in the chains of molecules allowing the vinyl to be more flexible and easier to work with. The second is the quality of the adhesive, which is made in Germany. This means application is easier because the vinyl has better pliability and adhesive compared to other brands so it can be repositioned easier with less glue lines. In many of the other brands we researched, the lack of flexibility and less than stellar adhesive meant that aside from a harder installation, the vinyl failed far more often.

What is it comparable to?

Customers who had previously used calendared material have given us extremely positive feedback about how our hybrid film is much easier to use than calendared films while having a much better finish than cast film. If you've only used cast film, you will need to make a few minor adjustments to technique (specifically not overstretching the film) which we cover in our provided instructions. Using our Tack Reducer solution will give you a more familiar adhesive feel. We also provide live support and guidance on Discord.
